Subway therapy

Only once did I manage to sit on the subway. That was a problem because standing up and getting through the crowd of standing passengers was difficult. My friends were standing outside the doors waiting to grab any available part of my body and yank me onto the platform. Normally we just stood within a couple of feet of the doors to make sure we could exit in time. You have to be quite aggressive to get off the subway during rush hour.

  1. The few times I've ridden the subway, I had to stand right next to the door with my unaffected arm grasping a pole because I don't move fast enough to hurry to the door. If anyone tried to share the pole and was in my way, I would "accidentally" lurch against them so that they moved away. And Tom would stay behind me so that if I missed the stop, he missed the stop.
