I'm on the subway to Times Square alone. And i'm feeling like this is the bravest thing i've ever done! The people aren't necessarily rude but they are sooo quiet. A packed subway and you can hear a pen drop. I really just want to say, "Gooood mornin, y'all! How's everyone?". I'm seriously tempted to do so but I think they may beat me up and take my money, so I'll refrain. No one looks up. Do they all have self esteem issues? No one looks at anyone else. I found myself bouncing from face to face and when they catch me they look at me as if to say, "What you lookin at?!?" So, I pulled out my iPhone and now I look like the rest of them. And since Im not allowed to speak, maybe I fit in? I seriously doubt it though. I told the concierge my first and last name and she picked up on the accent immediately. Said it reminded her of some nice, Southern jazz. Yikes. She sold me a buss tour. I had planned to tackle this thing all alone but I think a tour could be right up my alley. Maybe someone will talk on the tour. Y'all know me, I'm a talker and I need a little chit chat in my life today!
Ok I can't understand the accent of the subway driver man so it's time to pull out my map, in true tourist fashion and figure out where the heck I am!
Pics to come later today, if I make it back alive that is!

Cute post and I am glad you made it out alive.
Love the posts! Keep em coming :) I was super excited about my first subway ride & like you, I found it odd that every person is in their own little world & nobody talks!
Love it! How fun! Are you going to the Metropolitan Museum of Art? You could probably spend all day there! I loved it- cant wait to go back!
Okay, just read the other post and saw you are! Have fun!
