Public Infrastructure

Nora, walking into work late: I guess the 8 bus is just not working today? I had to take a different route and then walk a mile.

Indigo*: Yeah, there was all kinds of wonky traffic downtown.

Nora: How was the trolley?

Indigo: Maybe a little slow, but it was okay.

Nora: I wonder if there’s something going on.

Me: It’s the collapse of civil society.

Nora & Indigo: Ohhhhhhhhhhh

Nora: Is that all?

Indigo: Why didn’t you just say so?

Nora: I mean, duh!

Indigo: Otherwise known as Tuesday, am I right?
