Yesterday, I was blessed to be able to cross something off of my unwritten bucket list; I struck a conversation with a complete stranger on the sky train. Don't worry, y'all...I did not talk to some sketch dude who looked sketch-like. Rather, I spotted a women who gave her seat to a more elderly gentlemen. She winked at me in a friendly way, and I saw around her neck a BC Hydro card thingy.
so I said: "What do you do at BC Hydro?"
...and that one sentence completely set her off...(not that it's a bad thing, it was really interesting)
She began talking about the department that she works in (which just so happens to be environmental whatchamacallits) and how she and her comrades work to help lessen the impact of stuff to do with fish and rivers and water and stuff (Hydro...durrr....)..She also mentioned how there were two buildings and one was at Edmonds station where we parted...And she also spoke of something called...Statefield Park or something??
I don't even remember, but it was quite the conversation (though it was mildly one-way...I didn't have much to say)
So conclusion: Meet random person on public transit and instigate conversation? Check.
