| American in London |
Sunday 24 July 2005What's new with me? Not a whole lot to report, fortunately or unfortunately however you may look at it. I've been working quite a bit, which is good as I will be getting paid soon!Yesterday we had a sort of strange experience at work. With the recent terrorist attacks the policie and the metro transit have been very vigilant about bags and packages left on the busses. Well, yesterday afternoon all of a sudden a bus pulled over across the street and the driver took off over to stand in front of our shop. Pretty soon here come the police to check it out. Apparently, someone had left an athletic bag with his swim trunks on the bus. Oops. My coworker and I chatted with one of the police officers and he said this is all the calls they get these days. That was really as close as I have come personally to any kind of a scare, but the whole thing was over in about five minutes. Although I can tell you everytime a train stops, which isn't that often, in a tunnel, I get a little extra surge of nervousness. That's all for me today. I think I'm going to just run errands to the library and the grocery store. I have been reading American Psycho, but it's just too dark and graphic at the moment and I think I need something that is a bit lighter. 8:10 AM - 7/24/2005 - post commentShare and enjoy
