Chronicles of a Cookie Monster

When bus hopping, as discussed before, it is necessary to recognize the mystical magic that comes with carrying food and other treats onto the bus.

We found on our way to the BBQ in Oakland this weekend with kabobs, beer, and cookies that were not only for us but were potentially up for grabs for the entire bus stop and bus goers.

When waiting for the 1 for nearly 45 minutes with food and drinks in hand, one has to wonder when it is okay to bust out raw kabobs on the bus and subsequently start drinking our beers.

Luckily we didn't have to take our adventures to this level, but we were thinking seriously about it.

Likewise, we realized that the Lindsay Lohan raspy-voiced man waiting with us at the bus stop is truly the Cookie Montser of the East Bay.

Maybe we shouldn't call so much attention to our cookies by carrying them in large tupperware containers as it is quite difficult to hide a large tupperware container in a bright yellow purse.

Though we thought we got away from the Cookie Monster, the chase was not over.

The next day when traveling by foot (oh the horror!) I found myself passing by the same Cookie Monster yet again as I carried a very small tupperware full of cookies on the mean streets of Telegraph.

He was extra aggresive this time and kept yelling "I WANT SOME COOKIES GIRRRL!"

I couldn't help but laugh and Julliard-dance myself away from him....only to consider that we would most definitely meet again.
