In addition to the big news of starting a new job yesterday, I also ventured out on a new commute pattern - one that keeps my car (and me!) off the road for 28 of my 42 miles to the office. It wasn't the fastest route that I might have hoped for, but it was certainly effective and I managed to read about 3/4 of last week's Newsweek (I am a bit behind on my periodicals!).It is about a 2-hour venture door to door, which naturally adds 4 hours to my day, but I must admit that it is not as difficult as sitting in the car for that long would be. It is a short car-bus-train- another bus-walk ride to get to work (and then reverse it for home) each day. As I said, really not too bad in terms of the trip and everything moves pretty smoothly.
Surprising to me was the sheer volume of people out there doing the same thing. It was standing room only each time and the stations were all super busy. Who knew that there was such a culture of public transportation users in Los Angeles? It certainly surprised me. The volume of people also makes this a pretty good people watching venue...there will likely be some interesting stories in the coming months.
Until then, here's to avoiding seeing red while sitting in traffic by going green (and being chauffeured) with the MTA
