This is m third attempt: I finally found a computer and the mac will ensure that iphone doesn’t erase my words. From yesterday:
Over 6 wrong trains have proved that while I thoroughly enjoy adventuring, my sense of direction in the underground labyrinth that is the NYC subway doesn’t amount to shit and though fun at first, I’ve been on a mission back to Brooklyn for 3 hours now, and have had to pee for 2 of those. This last train, the G train that I know to be the right way home, I took the wrong way. Was a mere 3 stops off at my transfer and now sit waiting for the train back, to cover the additional 6 stops I adventured through.
If only my GPS worked underground.
I have no clue how people do this every day. I suppose you figure out where you are going, and I suppose this hasn’t been a total waste of time, at least I’m sober and I know why I’ve been going the wrong way: because I refuse to look at a map. But I have to pee so bad I’m considering taking the bums way out, find a dark corner, have at it.
Manhattan stations are much busier than this one.
Faint music wanders through the station, some hiphop kid blasting his eardrums, and a lady is painting her nails- the smell intoxicating, making me want to pass out. I’m positive if I pass out I will piss my pants. There is no doubt.
The adventure day was fun, getting to Manhattan proved easier than getting away, but it’s easy to get somewhere when it doesn’t matter where you go. Now it matters. Because my destination has a bathroom. And a sink. And mostly a toilet. Never before has a toilet sounded so amazing. A throne fit for a queen. That chilled porcelain awaiting my buttcheeks calls to me, “Jennie, Here Here! Deposit your piss here! You don’t even have to hover!”
Where is this fucking train?
The guy to my left thought the same thing obviously, hung his head out over the tracks, very daring. Maybe I’ll hang my butt out over the tracks and entertain the crowd with the sweet sweet sound of me urinating. Maybe I’ll get arrested. Both would be amazing sights, for all to see.
Here we go.
On the train. Going the right way. How did a 20 minute trip turn into a 3.5 hour journey through tiled mazes, a soundtrack to my life changing each time I swap trains, each underground performer adding a different element to my wanderings. “Take all of me” in one with “Shoop” in the next. 5 stops away. 5 stops and 4 blocks till touchdown. 5 stops 4 blocks and 14 stairs until I get to release m glorious used water back into the NY sewer system, which is probably traveling alongside me now, underground, and equally uncertain of our destinations.
Back to the station this all started. Back to one, 3 stops now, I can’t lie, I’ve had fun getting on wrong trains, it all started while I was trying to take funny pictures of myself on the train, realized it’s the wrong train, and did it again, and again. Guess it goes to show if I only focus on how I look in funny pictures, I’ll become incredibly lost and end up peeing my pants. That would be funny. I’m sure the chick next to me will laugh when our seat becomes warm from piss. Probably not actually. Maybe.
I should stand.
No. Better off sitting. It’s almost like sitting on a toilet. 2 more stops. So close. Gotta go. Can’t fuck this up again.

Think about fountains . . and waterfalls.
I think what I like best is that you filed this under “good days”.

Jennie,
Welcome to the Big Apple, my hometown. It would be fun if you got on one of the subways I operate. Subways can be confusing, even if you’ve been living here all your life, even more fun if you’re from out of town especially on weekends when they do most of the construction and trains don’t go where they’re supposed to. When in doubt, just ask. We’re friendly. Enjoy your stay!

Jennie – You are a force of nature! Thank you for your honesty, for your willingness to consider a different way. Chastity is serious/difficult/powerful. It’s something you have to grow into. It has been 14 years since I made the decision to get sexually sober. In that time my whole life has gradually lined up in a good direction. The shame – healed. The tension – channeled into helping others. The peace of mind – priceless. It’s a tough road, but so worth it. Hang in there and keep blogging!

That story was intense. You’ll have to let us know if you made it to the toilet in time. I hope so.

Jennie I feel for you. Driving a semi, sometimes you can’t find a spot big enough to pull into to take a piss if you wanted too. Exploring the subways does sound interesting, doing it while needing really badly to piss does take some excitement away though.

Don’t feel bad–the G is widely known among New Yorkers as non-user friendly. I have spent many an hour, drunk and sober, waiting for the wrong train. I may or may not have taken the bum’s way out, mostly as a fuck off to the G. Glad you took the high road!

Hmmm… something of a metaphor come to life for your life up til now, no? Headed in the wrong direction, enjoying life while moving away from where you need to be, sort of running away from it as you mug for the camera. Well, no matter. You figured out which train you need to be on, you figured out where you need to go in life. You put camera way, picked up your pen (or iPhone or Blackberry or …?) and opened your mind as you neared your final destination (one that offered a safe place to, well, de-stress and relieve yourself). Who could ask more from themselves? Paz, Ms K.

As I New Yorker (not by birth, just by circumstance), it is indeed something you get used to. One day it just clicks into place, and suddenly you’re able to find your way just about anywhere without having to lean over people to check the map again and again. This adjustment usually occurs shortly after one masters not making eye contact or breathing deeper when a weird smell wafts by.

Jenny, just wanted to say I think you’re
amazing. I too am in a 12-step program and you really are inspiring. I hope you continue to
use your recovery to pursue your creative
dreams and that you realize how important and
absolutely incredible it is that you share your
story, both on ‘Celebrity Rehab’ and on your
blog. You are just plain f-ing awesome. Good
luck here in NYC and, BTW, don’t worry, I’ve lived
here for 29 years (my whole life!) and I still
don’t understand the trains or buses.
