bad behavior on the E-line
I've written here before about my bus commute and my encounters with the crazy, talkative, old Chinese lady. Well, yesterday something happened that made me feel a little sorry for her.
At my stop in the north end an older woman with a walker & a service dog got on. I didn't think twice about them.
When I was about to get off, I noticed CTOCL. I'd been mercifully free of her company for a few weeks, and I was astounded that it took me that long to notice her presence. We usually get off at the same stop.
Walker Lady had her dog on a pillow on a seat next to her, near the front. CTOCL started hassling the Walker Lady about how the dog should be on the floor. WL soon had enough and told CTOCL to mind her own business and go back where she came from.
Oy.
I got off behind CTOCL, looked back at Walker Lady, and made the international gestures for, "She's crazy."
Walker Lady said aloud, "You think?"
I didn't stick around to explain that it just wasn't worth arguing with CTOCL.
