After a brief scare in September, the CTA again told riders that it would have to cut a slew of bus routes and raise fares if the state didn't fund a bailout. The second doomsday, as it was called, was supposed to be Sunday. Since I was too lazy to leave my neighborhood on Sunday and I don't generally the read local papers, I stumbled out of my apartment this morning and dashed on what I thought was my only bus option. To confirm my fears, the bus was packed and took close to 40 minutes for a trip that takes 10 on the line I thought was canceled. But when I checked upon my arrival at school, I found that doomsday has once again been averted.
They say that when you assume, you make an "ass" out of "U" and "me." Really, it's just me.
