the one where I make some random observations, just for your pleasure

Thursday, January 4th, 2007

so…I think I figured out where that extra $1.50 I’m spending each way on my commute is going, because it’s day two and still no egg sandwiches (although the train car does smell like waffles). I can now buy my monthly pass from the new kiosks.
Let’s see…$1.50 times 2, times 18 days is $54. Hrrmmm…it […]
