Commuting

Got out of the building this morning with bananas and cookies in hand (did you know that three of Safeway's Oreo™ knock-offs are 190 calories? eeck! Thankfully we have containers that small...). Bus was two stops away, so I waited and caught it down to Irving. Got to Irving and an H4 was turning onto the street, so I hopped on to go the one block past the construction work...

...only to get stuck in the worst construction-related traffic slowdown I've ever been in on Irving street. I could've walked the block twice by the time I got off, and even then it was only because I begged the driver to let me off early since I could walk faster than we were moving. Oy.

Still got into work on time, albeit barely. Not stopping for coffee helps with that now - I don't have to walk through the Plaza shops to get decent coffee (as opposed to the indecent stuff they sell here in the building - burnt, burnt, burnt!) and can come directly over from the closer exit. Whee.

Have you been converted to Olympic Espresso?

I had been drinking Olympic, yes - their stuff was sooooo much better than anything in the building here, but I've been off of caffeine entirely for the past two weeks.
