Another F Adventure
Ok, I had a good time last nite, UNTIL on the way home at 3am when I was racing up the stairs to catch the F train.
At that stop, there are like 12 flights of stairs to reach the F. Seriously. Like that many. I've actually seen people stop to rest and have a picnic half way through. There are that many.
So, I'm almost to the top and I'm very weary, my legs are ready to give out, but I hear the train pulling into the station.
There was no way I was gonna miss that goddamn train at 3am, so I sprint to the top and race to the train, only to wipe out right in front of the doors, sprawled on my back on the cement, my head next to the doors.
I thought for sure the train would pull away with me just lying* there.
But it didn't and I got on and all of the passengers cheered.
I ran through the train and high-fived everyone and while yelling I'M NUMBER ONE! I'M NUMBER ONE! WOOOOOOOOOOO!
I made up that part about me high-fiving. I am the worst high-fiver ever. I miss the hand at least 75% of the time.
No, I was mortified and covered my face with my hands for the rest of the ride.
It is a very strange sensation to lie on the subway platform in front of the subway doors.
Fun night.
I think I broke my arm.
*(Goddamn you Gloria Gaynor for confusing me about lie/lay. GODDAMN YOU GLORIA).

Yay a happy ending, of sorts. It's good to see that you don't just lie there when the train is about to pull out of the station. You had enough drunken sense to get on board. Hi, it's me, not the douchebag anouymous. What?
in the immortal words of E.T.
owcha
Mocha, why must you cause me such agita?
hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Holy crap. I wish I coulda seen it.
Falling down stories are always the best.
Although a illustrative drawing from you might have been nice.
It's not like you're doing anything else these days - give us drawings, dammit!
i wish the part about the high fiving was true

Ouchie! That musta hurt but I'm glad you didn't miss your train.
It was also kinda funny! :D
hahahahahahahahahaha. just had to come and laugh again. how did gloria gayner mess you up?
I'm in NYC this weekend. I am totally going to look for my big oppty to run down the carriage high fiving people.
That sounds awesome.
I'm always afraid that's going to happen to me as my little stubby legs try to keep up with the Beehive rushing to work in the morning. We saw it happen to another girl. It wasn't pretty.
PS Glad you're ok!
OMG... I'm so sorry that I am laughing. like hard. like really really hard.
You totes should have high-fived. you would have sealed the hero status for me.
