I just got in! I did something very exciting today: I took a new bus home.

I love taking new buses. I like seeing where they go, how they get to the end of their journey. I enjoy finding new ways to get from there to here. So today, I left work at 5 on the dot to walk to Atwater and catch the 104, which MLG informed me stops two blocks away from my apartment building.

It does. It did. I�m home, without having had to descend into the depths of the subway, switch cars, and stand on the packed 105 on a day as beautiful as this one.

One simple bus. I�m thrilled.

On the other hand, I still have to bus-metro-metro in the mornings because the 104 passes here at either 8.40 or 9.31 AM. Twenty or twenty-five minutes in to the city, and wow, look I�m either really, really early or just a bit late.

The quick and easy trip home on a Friday after a long week is quite the gift, though. Hurrah! Let the weekend begin!
