The Ying and Yang of commuting

I had a very bizarre trip into work today. I got a seat on the train and the heating was off (and the lady next to me was slim so I had plenty of room on the seat). Nobody walked in front/across me (so I didn't have to interrupt my leisurely stroll). I didn't have to queue at the ticket barriers (and I always get the person with the duff ticket in front of me). I had a large gap in front of me on all 6 escalators I travel on (I don't care much to be looking at someone's dandruff or getting a face full of last nights boozy wind!). I didn't have to queue to get on the tube (it can often be a bun fight) and the carriage was nearly empty (which was nice). Compare this journey with last weeks and there is definitely a ying and yang of commuting. You can't say commuting is always dull and repetitive! Then again I may be losing it...
