I had this idea a while back about doing a nature documentary on the stesterotypes that you find in NJ. Like many of my ideas, I lost motivation and moved on. However, today you can get a glimpse of what it would have looked like had I actually done it.

This a.m., I found myself at one of the last stops on the bus route before the bus hits the highway. I was here because as I was approaching my typical stop, the bus flew by. So, I raced it, and beat it (take that traffic laws).
Anyway, once I arrived at the stop I was greeted by a sight I could have only ever dreamed of seeing. Sitting at the stop was a 100% Jersey girl going to work. I felt like I won the jackpot here, as never in my life had I seen this creature in anything other than on line for faux posh club in Hoboken.
As I observed this marvel of nature smoking her cigarette and guzzling her red bull, her lime green inch long nails clicking on the can, I couldn't help but think myself lucky for never having to wake up anywhere near this.
Unfortunately she got on the bus ahead of me, so my study of this majestic and elusive creature -- the elusive working Jersey Girl, was at an end.
