RIP Doug

It's really hard to watch this episode of Workout knowing that Doug died months ago, which I just found out last episode because I finally decided to look up info about what was going on with him in the episodes. All of a sudden he was really sick in the hospital. It's just really creepy to watch it play out on reality TV. Especially since a couple episodes ago he was having his 44th birthday party which was a big deal because his parents died at 43, and that just seemed like adding some extra drama to the show, and then how crazy is it that he makes it to 44 and then dies, seemingly out of no where. It seems more like a soap opera plot than a reality show one. Sorry to see you go Doug!

Thanks Homeless Man!

I was on the green line inbound w/ groceries and instead of getting off at Park and walking home 15 min. I decided to transfer to the red line and take it one stop to Charles/MGH and walk 5 min. home. The ride from Park to Charles is very short usually though this time right after we exited the tunnel and were almost at the station, we stopped completely. It was a little weird but just seemed like a usual stop because of traffic ahead. They ended up turning off all power and saying there was a debris fire up ahead outside the station. They made it sound like it was no big deal and the fire dpt. would put it out and we'd be on our way though once we heard a bunch of sirens we knew we'd be there for a while; 20+ minutes of waiting on the train and not knowing what was going on and listening to idiots on their cell phones saying this could be the last time they talked to whomever, said w/ a little sarcasm. I was missing American Idol and my two pints of Ben N Jerry's were melting (on sale at Shaw's for $2.50) and trying not to think the worst but a little part of me was waiting to see flames or an explosion and burning up stuck in the train, I was feeling silly for being so lazy and not just walking from Park. Eventually they unloaded everyone car by car and of course I was in the last car on purpose since that's the closest to the exit at Charles, so it took a while for them to get to us. We walked off the train into the station and that was it. I saw the smoke up ahead by the Longfellow Bridge and was glad I didn't have to take a bus the rest of my trip and walked the 5 min. home.

Thanks again Homeless Man. I'm still alive :0)
