Today was a good day. Productive at work without getting too tired. Met with my sister to tackle the Smart Board after school (ugh, technology!). Good physical therapy session (my last before labor I ask myself every week?). On the 2 train on the way home I had too many bags and it was too crowded. One stop later seats opened up but were quickly snatched. I now officially look like I am either 9 months pregnant or a sci-fi character but nobody offered me a seat.. A black man (what I often wish I were) asked me if I wanted to sit. He was standing and I said "Oh, I am okay" and just moved over. He then proceeded to tell another young black man to get up and give me his seat. Like an order, but polite. I smiled and thanked both of them (the one who gave up his seat was not amused) and felt grateful for being a New Yorker.
