Well the most interesting part of my day is generall ymy morning subway commute. I spend my time noting fashion do's and dont's, lol.

The really bad thing about the subway of late is the extremely sharp rise in the number of homeless people. It is at the point where as soon as one person begging for money exits the subway car, another one enters. A lot of them are mentally unstable or sick, so there are people having almost violent discussions with themselves, or begging in barely comprehensible voices. It's terrible and very sad.
