Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Where I used to live, and where our office used to be, it'd take me 25 minutes to get from my Wicker Park appt. to work in downtown Evanston. Nice comfy Metra train, and I'd always get a good seat.
I can still take Metra, but it involves a shitload of walking. And maybe a bus. The less-comfy CTA trains can be faster, depending....
eta: Also, I can't read or web-surf on CTA trains without getting nauseous.
Anyone know how long LJ's temporary lockout is when you've typed your password wrong three times in a row?

Is that if you take the shuttle from North Station, or if you walk?
Both, oddly enough. I don't save much time at all when I take the shuttle. Which is one reason why I prefer walking.
I get a lot of school reading done on the train during the semester, so I don't begrudge that time... I'd have to hole up and read at home otherwise.
The girl with the shoes or the one who doesn't put them away.
I've always been the girl that doesn't put things away. It's why I need such a big bed--I can leave stuff on it for days and not interfere with my sleeping comfort. Which cracks my ER ride up to no end.
My commute before this one was 45 minutes there, up to an hour and a half back--over 70 miles. Now it's four miles round trip, and most of the time is taken up walking the three-odd blocks from the parking structure to the office building.
The long drive had the advantage of me being able to listen to a bunch of podcasts and/or books on tape. But that was in no way worth it.
Wore one of those many pairs of high heeled black sandals, which was silly since I have a doctor's appointment, and I usually walk to it. But I do have a co-worker who does her inter-building walking in stilettos. I will have to channel her big-time.
I have a 1.18:1 2D:4D digit ratio. Apparently, this is a hyper-feminine trait.
Anyone up for measuring their ring and index fingers?
I'll measure, as I have a tape in my desk, but I have no idea to figure this
1.18:1 2D:4D digit ratio
out at all!
Divide the length of your index finger by the length of your ring finger.
So, somehow my answer is .9444444444....
Your index finger is shorter than your ring finger. But not by a lot.
I have this really long index finger and it sort of freaks me out because I don't see a lot of people with them.

It's a sign of lycanthropy.
