commute
My commute went from 1 hour and 15 minutes (even though I lived ON the Hudson, and the drive with no traffic was 20 minutes!)
to 15 minutes when we were in Union Square
to 25 minutes when we were on 96th street
to an hour and a half now. Now I take the LIRR. It is so great. It's way quieter than the bus, and the ride is so smooth. I can read, if I want. I can nap. I've napped for at least 20 minutes every morning this week. That RULES! Yay, train!
Here's a site that has pictures and links and information on why you SHOULDN'T like the LIRR! Funny.
I miss riding public transportation. Maybe when I get a new boss I can adapt my hours here to accommodate riding the commuter train. Advice: when you sleep, wedge your purse next to the wall!

Thanks for the advice! I always get a window seat because mine is the first stop, so I'll always do that! :o)

Glad it's not a bother. Do you get to ride w/ Will? And you gotta change the heading on the main page 'cause it's outta date. TTYL Daddy
