Yesterday morning (Wed.) I saw something that in all my 20 years of riding GO Trains, I have never seen before. I'm getting on the train that leaves Whitby at 5:53am and three young girls (I'm guessing 19-22) got on the train. Two of them were wearing pretty much Daisy Duke shorts and T-shirts. (It wasn't that warm out!) Anyway, the settled into a quad and I mean settled into. Two of them (and maybe the third one? I didn't see her sit down.) brought their blankies with them. Yup, you read that right... blankies, binkies, minkas... also known as blankets. And not just little travel size ones... full on, twin sized blankets. Holy crap! Where did they think they were?!?! So after they chatted for about two or three minutes, they put on their headphones and hunkered down under their covers and went to sleep. One of them woke up periodically and used her iPhone as a mirror to check her hair. I caught the look of a woman I chat with on the platform, and we both started giggling. It was a sight to behold, for sure.
 
I could not figure out where they would be going that would require blankets. Maybe they were camping out to meet Kim Kardashian today. Who the hell knows? Anyway, it was pretty funny to see.
 
And this is the one time I wish I had a phone with both a camera and email capabilities. Sadly, I could not do both. I did, however, break out my coloured pencils and do another drawing. Ha ha ha! Their mouths came out a little weird but you get the gist of the blankets.
