my baby takes the morning train

[jillard]

i was surprisingly alert for a monday. on the subway this morning, i remember feeling this huge need to get an octopus and a shark tattooed on my left arm, because i was afraid of people dying, and i figured i should just get things to commemorate them while i'm alive, you know? i cannot remember what the hell triggered this train of thought,

,i>the electrician i mainly work with told me i was mechanically inclined - good with my hands. i shrugged it off and said, "must be the electrician genes!" but dang, hearing that gives me a twisty sort of pride, like my dad was the high school star quarterback and i just caught a football for the first time.

i can totally relate, even though nobody ever said i was good with my hands when i was on le job.
