Sunday, 8:00pm to 4:00am shift

A very bubbly Rosie Perez-type Puerto Rican teenager has been riding the bus at all hours of the night. I've been quite suspicious about what she is up to. She claims to be 18 going on 19 but I think she is more like 16. One rider took a good look at her and excaimed, "Wow, that's a pretty large pair of hoop earrings you have there!" It's true. She is always wearing big hoop earrings, but I was sure he was going to comment on the other pair of large things she is carrying around.
I asked her, "So, Rosie, what are you up to tonight?" "Oh, I have to find my stupid little brother and bring him home." She always claims to be out looking for her brother, whom I had never seen. This morning she bounced onto the bus with a 12 or 13-year-old boy in tow. "Rosie! Is that your little brother?" "Yes, this is Miguel. He's so stupid! Can you believe he called me at 3-o'clock in the morning to come and get him from the boardwalk?" Well Rosie, I'm not sure. But I'm glad to find out that your story is at least partially true.

Congratulations on finishing your first week!
