i keep seeing the same people on the trains and buses around town. it's creeping me out.

two weeks ago i saw these 5 punk teenage boys. they got on my bus and then off again about a stop before i was getting off. i noticed them only because one had this weird hair/face. two days later, i saw them again, on the same bus line. this time they got off at my stop. and there were only two of them - but one was the same kid with the wird face/hair.

then, last week, i saw this older couple who happened to be the aunt/uncle of the 12 year old boy who was killed in the pitbull attack a few blocks from my house. the first time i saw them was the day after the accident, on the bus. the lady was bawling her eyes out. it was very sad. the second time i saw them was about 5 days later, when i rode past them -- i was again in a bus, and they were waiting for one. but we were in a totally different neighborhood. she also wasn't crying anymore.

now, i keep seeing a the same people on the trains when i commute to work. less weird because i am trying to leave home at a more consistent time. but still odd given the larger picture.

oh and there was one more incident - but of course i can't think of it now.
crap-diggity.

oh well. it went something like this:

"i saw <insert person> at <insert place/time> and then <insert number> days later i saw them again, at <insert new place/time>."
