There is a woman on the E train this morning who is cracked out.
Growing up in the white-collar suburbs we always used to throw around the term " He's on crack!" or " What are you- on crack or something?" But now, being in big bad New York City I really do see real live people actually on crack occasionally. This particular woman this morning has wild wild curly black hair, all messy and crazy. She is muttering to herself.
Her eyes have a dull, glazed over stare as we roll along downtown. It is a stare that I really cannot describe other than "the crack stare."

- I have been living in Manhattan since this past January. I live in a rent stabilized walk-up in the less-glamorous part of the Upper East Side and work in corporate treasury down in the Financial District. I have decided to start blogging about my commute everyday- the things I see and the observations I make below the streets of New York each morning (and evening). Every day I get on the 6 train headed downtown and then switch to the 4 or 5 at either Grand Central or Union Square. I get off at the Fulton Street stop. Will this blog be boring? Only time will tell…
