Pervading numbers

1st train in a day of public transportation
27 minute ride

1080 yen ticket
1 man yellow diesel car
comfortably seats 30
43 crammed in
16 female
19 visibly wearing watches, all 19 right handed
7 in t-shirts
6 of said t-shirts are in English (Engrish)
3 more passengers are wearing Playboy shirts, which I now deem international waters
1 guy on crutches
8 wearing Converse (1 wearing what looks to be knock-offs)
6 pairs of stillettos (to reiterate, of only 16 females-not a good ratio)
21 passengers caught in staring crossfire
13 sleepers (largely, I hypothesize, to avoid the guilt complex that comes with not politely moving over to allow others to sit beside you)
5 sleeping hunched forward
7 sleeping fallen to the side
1 sleeping so far to the side she's drooling on her neighbor (but I think he's her husband)
17 suits, but only 13 with briefcases
9 listening to music
1 bopping to the music (me) (Did I just say 'bopping'?)
222 of 4219 songs played on the iPod, though many skipped as clearly so not fall under the category of suitable 'train' tracks (no pun intended.....seriously....I don't do puns)

arrive platform 2
depart platform 3
arrive platform 7
depart platform 6
160 yen ticket
1more stop
arrive platform 2
walk 10 minutes

All for ONE fucking meeting.

Turn around and do it all again.
