OCD and Flu...

what an adventure this morning on the way to work.

OCD kid - i like to people watch especially when i'm on the subway.  for example, this one asian kid who was wearing a sperry top-sider keeps fixing his right shoe lace.  i have no idea how many times he tied that damn shoe lace but at one point, i wanted to tell him that it looks fine.

Flu lady - i'm not really sure if this lady have the flu but because of her never ending coughing, i would say she has the flu.  the worst part of it all, she was sitting next to me.  so i won't be surprised if by tomorrow morning, i am barking like a dog as well. oy vey.
