运气

Post by tiffany » 2007-08-08 13:56

昨天晚上,哦,今天凌晨,我老被电闪雷鸣给吵醒了,看看钟才5点半,翻个身继续睡。良人倒是担心雨水从空调里渗进来,跳起来看了看也继续睡。早晨新闻说地铁给淹了,曼哈顿居民基本上处于出不来进不去的状态,我心说:哈,幸好我就在布鲁轮晃。然后我就出门了,站在门口一吸气---还是象在呼吸水蒸气,看了一眼我们家车车,给雨水洗的黑亮黑亮的,就按照老路去了地铁站。地铁站卖票窗口围了一群人,都在问有车没车,卖票人说:有,很少,很慢。我听了想反正有车,就上站台等着去了。站台上的人也没有明显的比前几天多很多,我打着苦等的主意找了个地方坐等。结果没多会儿,感觉到站台轻微的震动,我方来车了,停下来一看,就是人多,就上去了。这班车缓缓行来,倒也不算特别慢。到了中转站我给吓着了---站台上挤满了都是人啊,而且有更多的人下来赶这班去城里的地铁。我艰难的下了车,上了楼梯,去倒下趟地铁,只见这个站里来来往往全都是人,我老做黄花鱼状溜边行进,一眼看见我的下趟车停在站里,当即飞奔几步,冲了上去。如是到了学校,也不过比平时晚上五分钟。不一会儿好姐妹电话到了,问我说:有车么?我说:有,就是很少。他说他马上出来。过了半小时,他电话过来,这次是印度小娘接的,说他不来了。我还奇怪,然后碰见另个实验室的小姑娘,说她从地铁五站开外走到学校来的。我才想到事情的严重程度,查了查新闻,发现居然有房子的屋顶都给掀了,大树倒了若干,小树倒了若干,若干街趴的车子就此报销。我这基本上就风平浪静,没有啥具体影响,真是运气啊。

我也被雷声吵醒了,起来把窗一关接着睡。等早上去地铁站发现不开,我就改走路上班了。

我老板走了两钟头来上班。我说他跟家上班得了,干吗非得来啊。人家说他大概没反应过来,想这个地铁站不开去下一个吧--结果走了三分之一的路才绝望,但是已经来不及了。。。

All the bus lines were ridiculously long and there was no empty cab at all.

we had a super early meeting today in CT so i got to grand central fine before everything was shut down - other than getting totally drenched in my suit even with an umbrella - just so that i can then sit on metro north for 3 hours. then of course when i was back in the city for the afternoon rush hour, my train was one of the few still not running. at least the LIRR was so crowded that i rode for free, heh.
Now that happy moment between the time the lie is told and when it is found out.

Ah, look at the bright side, at least you got a free ride that was worth about ...9 bucks.

想起以前看的,大学宿舍门上,贴张画儿或者贴句名言,有人贴:运气来了,门板也挡不住,您来了也一样。 :mrgreen:

(我的坏运气,另外开贴了。)

我百年不遇的去城里开一次会(上次是去年12月),结果就赶上这事。从早上6点起床,到晚上10点回家。愈发下定了我不去城里上班的决心。好在城里最近也没有啥好东西。
话虽那末说,花花视界里人一个个穿的好身材又苗条。晚上吃的法国馆子虽然既没有鹅肝又没有蜗牛,但是还是很好味。在agency上班的年轻小姑娘得意地说最近去看的show。艾,还是要羡慕的
