Whew. So Glad It’s Saturday. Friday evening really went sideways on us. First, I was on a subway train that hit a man on the tracks. Train stops half into the station, it’s power goes out, lights all go out and the doors won’t open. Crowded train, a few people get twitchy and claustrophobic. One young lady goes down clutching her chest, spasming some and says in spanish “heart murmur” over and over. Poor thing is terrified. The doors still won’t open so I open the door between train cars to let air in. Meanwhile metro guys are ignoring our shouts for help. (I had no idea they were working a badly hurt man upfront) I reach out from between the cars and grab one metro guys sleeve and force him to look at me and hear me say or maybe shout “lady down with a seizure” His eyes get big I let go and we evacuate our car finally.

I walk up onto Hollywood bl. and find a place for a drink and a snack, waiting for the wife to come down and pick me up and another “red line refugee” who we gave a lift to.

I get home and a dear friend is in tears, she has just found solid evidence her husband is a serial cheater, and just got a DUI. Ya know I get consenting adults and all that but the damage done by that kind of betrayal is soul wrecking.

Maybe it’s a good day to take the truck and camera gear out for an afternoon.
