actually, what it sounds like you should do on trips like these is to bring a small notebook and write a short story for each of these things you see. and i mean short, maybe a couple paragraphs for an individual encounter. and then when yer done with the trip, you'd have this li'l book of snapshots capturing the things going through your head as you wandered about the world that one time.

*shrug*

just a suggestion.

Ya know, I used to do that. The two times I went to Europe I had a note book and did little snippet entry things, but after a bit I get distracted and stop writing. My brain things faster than my hands can write so I lose interest and end up drawing ladies with big boobs all over the place. I, however, type faster than I write so I try to just remember things and then rehash them online.

eh, just a suggestion. i kinda liked the idea of getting on a train, riding somewhere, and then coming out of it with a book short stories. =]

I would have written in my sketchbook, but it's 11X14 and a tad bit bulky. Maybe I need to get myself something a bit smaller.

yah, well, size matters, after all.

Aren't you at the abode of some easysexyboy? Why are you posting to LJ instead of humping like bunnies?

What? You aren't going to sit under his desk and touch him inappropriately while he is trying to learn? Because that totally sounds like something you would do.

I tried but I wouldn't fit. ::sadness:: so I'm here at his apartment. I think I might run around and rub my man-stain on things.

I once considered changing my name to Sebastion. Or Oliver.

Sounds like the train ride was magic, or at least you made it so. Traveling by train is so much cooler than by plane.

You probably could write good stories. You obviously do have the imagination and the writing skills.

Especially when you're on a fast train like the Acela Express. From DC to NY in under 3 hours is just awesome any way you slice it. My last stint on an Acela was in 2003. It's been way too long; I gotta get back there.

I haven't been taking the Acela recently because it's always like $25 more expensive and I'm cheap. Very very cheap.

I've been taking the train over flying for a few reasons.
1) it's a bit cheaper
2) leg room leg room leg room

I love having leg room and retaining feeling in the bootm half of my body. I dunno...I just like it.
