Train Delays

by

I am on the early train today. I never know why I choose to take this train. It always ends up waiting near the tunnel to manhattan. That makes the express trip almost as long if not longer than the train’s that make more stop’s. I wanted to get to work earlier today so I took it, but it is always funny to me that the express train that makes no stops after it picks me up takes nearly as long as some local’s or other express trains that may make 1 or 2 more stops after my station. Go figure.

Today is rainy and in the 40’s going on 50’s today in NYC. Plain old dank weather. I am glad it is cool still since the AC problem in my office is still up in the air. I am glad I am not Dan. He has to figure out and fix this problem. Everyone, including myself ask him all the time “what is up with the AC”. I do it now because it drives him crazy. Others really don’t know and ask to get updates.

Vacation Planning

by

I have to start looking at vacation places. I have my max amount of days I can accumulate. I haven’t been away since last June when I went to barbados with my family. I was thinking of taking a long weekend and going to New Orleans to visit Jayson. I wanted to go April 16 – 19, but the airfare was really expensive. I thought Jet blue’s prices were consistent. That they didn’t go up as the date of travel got closer. I was wrong. It was like $400 for a round trip ticket to New Orleans that weekend, but if I planned something in May it was $220. Delta who I also like to travel on wanted almost $300 and I would need to transfer in atlanta. Now the atlanta airport brings back memories of my travel days at Datastream but I would rather have a direct flight that was cheaper, and oh lets throw in some free TV while I am at it. Jet Blue I am sold.

I really do need to plan a real week long vacation. I have too many travel ideas. I can think of like 5 different places I want to goto. I need to pick one and go. Maybe this summer?

MoBlog Update

by

I am actually using this MoBlog by Textamerica. It is fun taking pictures and sending them off to the web. During the week I realize that things are repetitive. I have a routine. I take the train to work, get breakfast, goto work. Then I take the train home. That is what I will be taking pictures of, since that is what I do 5 days a week! I have already found some interesting things to snap. I am waiting for the novelty of the whole photo taking thing to wear off, but it hasn’t yet.
