Subway bathroom

No this isn't a post about trying out the bathrooms in the NYC subway. I don't even think they exist and I wouldn't even want to try. But this is about bathroom art and how one can reproduce the NYC subway map in a really cool way with tiles.

We've been trying to fix our bathroom and make it a little more artsy (no luck so far). I was also planning on buying some small tiles to put on our window, but maybe we should redo the whole thing.

Christoph Niemann (remember him blogging about his kids loving riding the NYC subway?) has been blogging about redoing his bathroom with tiles representing famous art pieces. It's very cool and inspiring. Obviously, I like the subway art the best, even though it's not really a famous piece of art (although I do think that people who create maps should be considered artists). I plan on doing some thinking and shopping this weekend to figure out how I can use tiles in our bathroom without it costing us an arm and a leg. That might be the real challenge at the end of the day.

Otherwise, not much happening on the subway lately. I used to think that people that wear sunglasses on the subway are morons trying to be cool. But I now see the attraction and cannot board the subway without my shades, especially in the morning when my anger is at its peak. I just think it reduces the opportunities for confrontation. And even if I can stare at people and frown in disgust, at least nobody can see me. I really think I am becoming more and more passive aggressive by the day.
