Tuberculosis

We got on the not full bus (which is always great because you can put overstuffed backpacks in a seat instead of on your lap) and got comfy. Sure, we had slept plenty the night before, but a day in the sun (after a weekend of late nights) makes you tired. We got all cozied up to our pillows and the coughing began.
There was a man in front of us that must have been suffering from ADD. He could not sit still. That was going to be annoying enough by itself. However, he also seemed to be suffering from Tuberculosis. Not really, but he had a serious cough and clearly had no remedy. He would literally cough (the kind that rattles and hurts even those just listening) every four or 5 seconds. The. Whole. Way. Back. That’s right: over two and a half hours.
The good news is there was a movie to distract. The bad news is that the movie was terrible.
What a ride.
