I wrote the following on my phone on the Chicago L train:
So I'm on the train now and wondering if I wasn't properly prepared. Is it required of a girl traveling alone to pack mace? No one says so but when I told chris I was on the train he asked if I was safe on the train. Admittedly I found the train because a man named joe offered to help me. He had overheard (he couldn't hewlp it of course) my phone conversation on the shuttle to bwi. How odd having shuttled with someone who caught the same flight and not known it until we'd landed. Anyway he came to me as I was rumageing through someopne elses bag that looked like mmine an dtimidly asked if wed rode the shuttle together. Trying to be discreet about re placing the mistaken bag I confirmed and he sugested since we were foing the same way that he'd help. I trusstd him because I don't know, he was timid and his name was joe I guess. Can u go wrong with a joe? I haent mmet a joe I didn't like. Anyway after accepting his help I was vaguely aware that my mother would say this is exatly why she sas I'm too trusting. The walk was short his help was honest and parted without much persuasion. Reguardless I kept my wits about me and made sure to drop in that I had a husband. He has a wife. He said maybe he would see me around and kind of laughed. I hope it was a haha yeah right in hicago? Laugh and not a ill be stalking u later laugh. Oh well. I only have two parrells ahead of me now : switching to the red line and walking the two blocks to the hotel with my enormous suitcase. I feel the need to catlouge my whole trip. Maybe because t is the first trip in my life that I have taken alone. I remember sitting on the plane and thinking this is me on a plane alone does this mean I'm an adult now? Ok I was going to type an interwesting bit about m,y bag and the rockiness of the train but I've already been interupted twice by chris and my parents making sure I'm safe. So sending tata
