... Has to be one of the most disorienting things imaginable. Walking around London makes me feel like my world is turning upside down... its like being hungover one morning and think you are imagining things... but you're not. Its really weird!
Other random observations: The brits LOVE to stand in lines (sorry, in queue). People get in queue without even knowing what its for! I wonder whats going through their heads.... "ooo a queue! i love queues! why dont i just jump on it for the fun of it! ooo yippee!" Silly british. another queue story - i was waiting in queue and another guy cuts someone. a guy two person back approaches the miscreant and asks, "excuse me sir, but i just wanted to let you know that the queue starts back there (hand gesture) - I just thought i would let you know..." Come on. In new york he'd get stabbed, not politely and passively aggressively asked to move. o boy
Started my job a few days ago.... as it turns out it takes me almost an hour to get there... what the hell. alas such is life - hopefully living in a more central location will be worth the shitty commute. we shall see.
For those who have seen Batman Begins, I'm working in Arkham Asylum. Yup, the building they used for Arkham is my research institute. Yup, im scared....
As I was walking down the hill from Arkham Asylum to the tube stop, i hear a bell. figuring it was a bicycle on the sidewalk, i move over. I turn to see what the noise is. Blurring past me at supersonic speeds hurls an old bald man in a white tee-shirt on a red electric wheelchair...... old people can have fun too!
