New York City (Supplemental 2)

Penn Station is like a shopping mall with 65% more creeps, 40% more cops, and 100% more Amtrak. Which by the way, is handled in a system of scheduled arrival and departure times because they go nation wide. NJTransit is a similar setup (state wide) and so unlike the DC metro where trains ran routes nonstop, I find myself with a ticket back to metropark that leaves in 15 minuets instead of three. Its not really a big dicotomy against the speed, noise and adreniline of manhatten though, becasue that waiting-for-the-trains bit is comparable to 300 tourists with explosive diarrhea waiting in line for a malfunctioning rollercoaster. I hope I end up having a decent evening tonight. It will be my last outing here in Jersey/New York and with Kristine until god-only-knows-when. I've got a Journey to continue and she's moving away from her Mom's place post-graduation. I'm gonna miss her.
