Segway Reaction of the Day
Okay, I apologize for not having posted any Reactions in God-knows-how-long. I assure you, there have been PLENTY, and I will get to them soon enough. Until then, I will present you with just a couple from tonight (both while gliding back from Georgetown):
I am pretty sure my Segway experience, coupled with my writing skills, would be enough to get me published in the Washington Post Sunday Magazine. Stay tuned. ;-)
- 20-something guy to his friend: "That guy's got a fuckin' Segway!"
- attractive woman talking to friends outside my apartment: "That's awesome." ("Thanks!") "Do you ride that everywhere?" ("Yeah, pretty much.") Look of awe.

I didn't know you had been thinking about giving up the Seg because of the attention....
Yeah. Most people don't realize that I am a huge introvert. People think I'm outgoing but I'm actually pretty shy. I don't like being the center of attention everywhere I go. I don't know how to respond. I just grin and nod, say hi if they say hi to me, but I don't like everyone looking.
It's a love-hate relationship.
I'm similar with my segway. I just wish it could go further than 20 miles. I'm getting used to the same old comments, but haven't gotten any rude remarks yet. I guess the people in the midwest are so not used to seeing something like a segway that they don't think to say "Walking's healthier." I've got a blog where I post my segway adventures at http://segwaythrucollege.blogspot.com/ to read just posts on my segway go to http://segwaythrucollege.blogspot.com/search/label/Segway%20Adventures
