The kids are out! Dressed up and ready to go.

There’s a lot of cute little tikes out, so that’s not bad. Unfortunately, there’s the teens.

I find it funny when 15 year olds dress up as school girls. It’s sort of missing the irony you find when an adult dresses as a school girl. I mean, you REALLY are a school girl in the first place. Pulling your skirt up and showing off your boobs isn’t very original since you already do that to get guys to look at you. Cop out.

So anyway, at least there’s a show on the subway for the day. 1) you get to see which parents really put effort into their kid’s costumes. 2) some of them are fairly funny.

Happy dress like a slut day…I mean…Halloween.

So it is Tuesday and Halloween. This past weekend, there were tons of people in the subway system dressed up. So I don’t anticipate a lot of that today. I think the adults got it out of their systems this weekend instead.

So tonight will probably be the invasion of the little goblins as the youths hit the streets.

Rumor has it that the older kiddies hit the subways to head for the wealthier neighborhoods in search of better loot. Resourceful little punks. There must be a fine line. Some neighborhoods are probably to too snobby to deal with this “low class” holiday. So you don’t want to go to too crazy.

So that’s what I’m affraid of tonight. I recently moved to the block I live on now, and it is really nice. I’m by far the “poor” person in the neighborhood. I’m surrounded by millionaires. Somehow, I managed to get a fab apartment for a steal after the guy that lived there for decades passed away. I don’t pretend that it was skill…just pure luck.

Anyway, in my head, I envision hundreds of children pouring out of my local subway stop to invade the block. Maybe I’m over reacting? We’ll find out.

By the time I get on the train tonight, the kiddies will probably already be on board. I’ll be able to get a better sense then.

On of the downsides to daylight savings is that you’ll not see the sun again until the spring.

Walking to the subway from work, it is now completely dark. So, you immediately notice how cool stuff in the city looks lit up at night. However, there’s already Christmas lights up!

There’s nothing wrong with stringing them up now. I mean honestly, who wants to be dealing with those flippin’ things when it’s 2 degrees outside. So yeah, hang them up now. But do we need to turn them on?

I was walking to the subway and I was seeing them all over the place.

In a funny contrast, I ran into Kelly Ripa on the street with her kids (as in Regis & Kelly). She was wearing a black spider thing on her head and her kids were dressed up for Halloween. So we’ve got Christmas lights and Kelly dressed for Halloween? Talk about spooky.

Of course, the subway itself is at an all time freakshow high. More and more adults trying to be kids are running around the system dressed up for Halloween. Women should save their money and just go in their bra/panties. Why bother paying for a slutty costume?

The loud “gangsta glam” bitches next to me need to shut up.

How ’bout that for a lead?

There are 4 girls having the most obnoxious conversation ever. They are sitting across from each other reviewing their party last night. Unfortunately, it is standing room only on this train. So they are talking through the crowd of people standing in front of them.

Two of them are debating whether or not one of the threw up in the sink or in the bathtub. That’s right, yelling this back and forth.

“Bitch, I threw up in the fuckin’ sink yo,” said the one. “Nigga that was the bathtub. Don’t believe me? Yo ask Jo-Jo,” responded the otherone.

Now we are on to what a slut and a bitch Jo-Jo is. Ironically enough, she’s a bitch because SHE is disrespectful. Mind you, she’s dropping the f-bomb every other word while sitting next to some 80 year old grandma on one side, and some little kids on the other. But apparently, Jo-Jo needs to learn some respect before these “hoes” show her what’s up.

Some people just don’t know how stupid they sound.

I’m sitting on the Penn Station bound LIRR…as promised this time!

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: I love the subway, but these new LIRR cars are nice! The subway will always be #1, but I still dream of the day when the subway will be this nice.

The difference is like riding an old Red Bird and then getting on a new train on the Lex line.

Anway, the train is EMPTY since it is the middle of the day. Of course, I get in the car with the jackass who talks on his cellphone the whole time.

Buddy, you and me are the only ones in this car. So why do you insist on talking at full volume. Hell, why bother using the minutes, the person on the other end of the line can probably hear you a mile away.

Ok, so I’m gonna go throw his phone out the door at the next stop, and then take a nap in these nice, big seats.

More this afternoon.

It feels good! Back in the regular morning routine. The smell of car exhaust, and urine in the subway. Ahhh yes…how I missedbyou. But seriously, I am glad to be back.

Anway, this morning takes me out to Long Island after a quick pit stop at the office. Last week, I built everyone’s hopes up with promises of tales of adventure from the LIRR. Unfortunately, that meeting got canceled. This morning, it is on for sure.

So, around midday, you can expect a bonus post (for real this time) from my excursion out on the LIRR. Good times.

So until then, wish me luck, and come back very soon! There should be something new by lunch at the latest.

SUBWAYblogger’s back!

After a 2 day mini vacation, we’re back in the city. Having been a subway-only rider for so long now, car travel actually makes me sick. Within minutes of hitting the road, that car sick feeling started to settle in. All that damn stop-and-go movement.

The trip was nice. Relaxing. Better than sitting at work. It was just long enough. After a couple days, it starts to feel weird not being in the city. Everything is to slow and too quiet.

Anyway, Friday will start the regular posting again. For now, I think it’s time for a nap!

Live from the subway, back to you in studio…

Well gang, I’m sorry to report that there will be no afternoon posting today or morning post on Thursday.

Why?

SUBWAYblogger will be on a mini vacation that takes us outside the reaches of the NYC subway.

But never fear, SUBWAYblogger will return Thursday afternoon!

Sit tight and we’ll chat then.
