Time of Day: Morning
Journey: Home ---> School
ipod: Cindy Davis
Situation: The bus takes on a type of heat at is reminiscent of what I'd like to think hell might feel like.
Why it's annoying: Given the, once again, recent drop in temperature, most of us bundle up for the walk to/wait for the bus. Depending on the temperature, said outfit can include multiple sweaters, long johns, and many socks.
While one might be cozy and happy whilst waiting for the bus, getting on the overheated hellhole that is the transit commission is a sweaty nightmare. Fine. I get it. It's cold outside, and the bus is nice and toasty. Thank you for even turning the bus on.
BUT your judgment in temperature has a couple of problems: 1) I am uncomfortably hot in many layers and beginning to sweat. Sweating on the nice warm bus = freezing in the cold air when I exit.
2) I am not the only one who feels a little too warm...clearly the person beside me who is emanating the stench of body odor is having a similar problem except he/she does not believe in the radical new concept called "deodorant" [note: perhaps this should be a memo to people to shower before getting on the bus in the morning].
3) Heat makes me sleepy. In other news, students are back to skipping classes and I can sit again.

Mmmmm... heat induced sleepiness. I've fallen asleep many times on busses but have never missed my stop. Come to think of it, I could go for some heat induced sleepiness right about now!
