It's going to be slower, and/or involve switching from train to bus back to train
I am down with slower, but not with buses. Is there a page I can monitor to find out which way it will go?
Did I mention that it's also Bring Your Kids to Work day?
I am so glad we don't do that.
I have kids. I love my kids. I have no interest in bringing them to work, nor do I want to spend more than 10 minutes with someone else's kids at work (except to the extent that my work involves working with kids, which is another matter.)
Benefits of being a freelancer who works from home: (1) work in your pjs; (2) lunch = PB right out of the jar; (3) go to the gym at 1:00, when no one else is there; (4) no Bring Your Kids To Work Day.
(4) no Bring Your Kids To Work Day
Unless you're a mom who works freelance from home, in which case every day is Bring Your Kids to Work Day. Until they hit public school, anyway!
Man, I don't miss those days.
Is it unreasonable for me to desire my roommate to actually say 'goodbye' to me when she leaves the house in the morning so that I know she's gone?
She does get preoccupied/stressed and is very forgetful, but it's something that I've asked on numerous occasions. I feel like it's almost a safety issue, that we know when another is around or not... and I always let her know when I'm going out.

Oh, oops. Right. I was thinking about other people's kids coming in to the office and being underfoot, but -- yeah, fair point.
Oh, I know, Steph. It's just worse when they're your own, because they won't go away!
I don't think that's unreasonable at all, Theo.

That's OK, you can just take a different train that goes the long way around. Instead of the A to Howard Beach, you'll need to take the E to Jamaica (Queens, that is).
I wonder if any of the staff brought their kids. I haven't actually been across the hall today. Nobody asked about it so I'm guessing not.
I'm not interested in working. Much of my family is headed to Nebraska where my cousin is getting married this weekend. They are actually getting married on a bridge that spans Iowa and Nebraska with the family on the Nebraska side and the ceremony over the state line where it is allowed. Celebrations after in Omaha. Here's hoping it won't be too long before their marriage is recognized in their home.
Oh wow, that's a pretty neat solution, Laura! I mean, sad it has to be done but...
