I look like I know what I'm doing

So, I'm riding the bus this morning. And, about two stops away from where I get off, a girl turns around to me and asks me what time I had. Ironically, it was the same time that the bus clock read, but I didn't mention that. Then, an older Hispanic woman came up to me with two children. She said she was lost on the route and needed to know the nearest stop to where she needed to take them. I pulled out my self-laminated copy (in other words, I Scotch taped the piece of paper until it was "laminated") and showed her where she could get off best. Then, I get off at my stop and a guy comes up to me and says "Hey, how do you get to ACC from here? The driver stopped down that road yesterday and now he stopped here and now I'm all turned around." I then told him to go down to MLK Jr. Blvd., turn right, turn left on Rio Grande and then he'd see it on his left. So, the moral of all these stories is to ask one simple question:

Do I look like I know what I'm doing?

I mean, it's my first week riding the bus. It's not like I thought I looked like a seasoned bus rider or anything. Maybe I do. Today I was wearing a dress. Maybe my hott ass motivated people to trust me.


So, the lady who sits behind me at work hums all day. It's pretty cute. Random tunes too. But, she sings like my grandmother. Ya know, very warbly. Like an older church singer. It's like I can picture her standing in the soprano section of a church chorus. In fact, she braids her hair a lot and wears adorable sheath dresses. Like an FLDS lady, but more contemporary. Then, I asked her if she had children and she said "Yes, he's 48." I looked confused and then laughed realizing she meant her husband. She then went on a long talk about how marriage works. Her biggest point is you can never change someone, no matter how much you want to. Also, she said if anything annoys you now, it's not going to go away, so either get used to it or get out. Pretty good advice. Church lady craving anyone?
