Old couple on the BART

First blog entry! woo hoo!

So I was having a pretty icky day on Thursday, and just wanted to go straight home after work. (unfortunate, since it was SOOOOO beautiful that day) I was waiting for my train to come and I notice an older couple struggling with getting their bags together. Whatever, nothing out of the norm. Old people are always struggling with things. The train comes and I find a seat quickly, keeping my sunglasses and ipod on. (gotta look cool on the BART, yadadafeelme?)The train starts to move and the old couple have yet made it to a seat. The old woman trips and nearly falls over, the old man catches her saying, "I gotcha dear! I gotcha, youre not gonna fall." Cute.

They find their way to two seats next to each other, and settle their groceries on the floor. The old man then puts his arm around her, holds her hand and kisses her head. They close their eyes in attempts to catch a few minutes of sleep until their destination. The West Oakland Station approaches and the couple gets up to leave. However, only the woman gets off the train, the old man stays on to say goodbye. He gives her a quick kiss before the doors close in front of them. The train begins to move once again and she waves frantically as the train speeds off in front of her. Yes, just like in the movies. He waves back then makes his way back to his seat.

Now, I don't know why they aren't getting off together, but I don't care.They were soo ridiculously in love, it was adorable. They were like in the 60's or 70's but were acting like they were 17 and had just fallen in love. Or maybe reunited after many years of separation. Whatever their story, it made my day so much better. You really can't help but smile. I just thought, "Omg, thats so cute. Omg, I needa tell Ariel (tasteofinspiration.blogspot.com)!" But now that I've downgraded to a non-QWERTY keyboard phone, life is a lot harder and I, sadly, could not text him hella quickstyle. (RIP t-mobile wing) Then I thought, "boy, this would be a lot easier if I had a blog of some sort so I can tell ALL my friends." (yes, all 3 of you) THEN, I decided to start a blog so I can tell everyone about all the cute things I see in everyday life. I don't know how long I'll be able to keep up with blogging, but hopefully awhile! :D

Also, no pics of this cute couple, but I'll post this instead, which is equally as cute.





cute little condiment bottles! lol
