I can feel myself retracting into my shell, like a crab, when I have to take the subway anywhere. It's an odd feeling that I don't tend to get when I'm in other crowded situations. I'm an introvert, so in general I stick to the corners of rooms and the lower boundaries of social interaction, but that feeling of shutdown is something I only get on the subway. I kinda like it, actually.

Oh yeah, and I do my grocery shopping early in the morning or after work too. Lots of people blocking aisles with their carts, oblivious to whatever else is around them... yeah, I like to keep that to a minimum.
