Train to work
I took the train to work today. Note to self: do not miss the 07h30 out of Union Station. The next one is at 08h50, which, while it gives you time to buy an Almond Joy, gets you to work rather late.
Best case one way seems like 2 to 2.25 hours. The Metrolink is exceedingly pleasant, and the Gold Line’s not too bad. And I can do productive stuff: work, or watch movies, or listen to podcasts. Or today, sleep. On both trains. The whole way.

I take the Purple Line and the Red Line all the time, and the Gold Line isn’t a bad bit of track (although I prefer my trains to run underground; the Bright Face, it burnssss usssss!). I get a lot of reading done during transit. If you ever have a day free to do so, I’d be up for the two of us (and anyone interested in joining us) buying day passes and riding around on the Metro all day seeing where we wind up.

I’d be totally for that. Niall would of course enjoy, too. I told him I was riding the train today.
“What kind of train?” he asked. “Coal cars? Freight cars? I love trains.”
