Overheard on the MRT

"Could you PLEASE cover your mouth when you cough?"

"It's a public place."

"Exactly! You're sharing your germs with everyone. Please cover your mouth!"

"You have no right to tell me what to do."

"It's just common sense - it's rude to cough without covering your mouth."

"Don't tell me what to do."

"Ugh" Then she opens her newspaper very wide so it is in the face of the cougher.

This was on the MRT on the way to work - between two grown women. I was definitely on the side of the criticizer. Come on! People cough all the time on the train, and it's FILLED with people, and it grosses me out.

In other news - it is NOT the rainy season, and it has rained pretty much straight all week. Very wet.

Kitty has learned to jump from our bed out the window (but it's FAR to the ground!). We're nervous she's going to try to jump down and hurt herself. How many broken legs does she want!?

She just ate a bug.
