Bus...

[senoritafish]

Well, I finally did something I've been threatening to do for a long time and bought a bus pass. It takes a half an hour longer each way, but I can use that time to catch up on my reading. John will have to take over getting Angus and Gareth to school (which I will miss), but I think he's better at getting them there on time anyway. Possibly I can come in earlier, and leave earlier, however the bus schedule on street my office is on is kind of weird; it runs every hour and 15 minutes, so I'm either leaving fifteen minutes early or staying over an hour until the next bus. I'll still drive in on dock days, but for now, I can get a thirty day bus pass for the same price as it costs to fill the Trooper up once. I'll try it for a month and see how it goes.

I wish we could take the bus to work. Well, technically, I guess we could, but there would be 2 transfers involved and it would probably take an hour :(

P.S. I should add that all three of us commute together and we lived as close as we reasonably couldso I guess our overall impact is pretty low compared to other folks around here.

P.P.S. I used to have an hour-long train ride to work in DC, and I read more during that year than the entire rest of my life, I think. I loved it :)
