Did He Really Just Ask Me That?

I bailed on work a little early today because I wasn't feeling well and really didn't want to wait around the office any longer in case it got worse.

Anyway, I was getting a little antsy on the train waiting to finally get to my stop. It sounded like there was a problem with a passenger and the one conductor sent another one to investigate. He stayed behind in the mid-train vestibule. The next thing I know he asked me if my bag was Coach?

Excuse me? Did he really just ask me that? No it's not new. I bought it last year at the outlet. I think the regular stores were carrying the version is suede while this one is typical leather. Blah blah blah. So here I am having a conversation about semi-expensive ladies bags with someone you wouldn’t expect.

Anyway, he let me in on a little secret. There's a newish Coach outlet closer to me instead of having to trek all the way down to Atlantic City. That's dangerous bit of information considering I was thinking about checking out the AC outlet for a backpack. Hmmm….
