I have to admit, sometimes technology is cool.
For instance, right now I am on a DC-bound bus on my way out of Manhattan. A BUS. And I am writing a blog post. I don't understand how wireless internet can possibly work while I'm sitting in a moving vehicle, but I don't care: it's awesome.
Of course, rush hour traffic in New York City on a Friday afternoon is the opposite of awesome. Dreadful might be a good word. We are currently in line to enter the Lincoln Tunnel, and I can't even see the entrance. I hope we make it to DC before midnight!
Today I got Chipotle for lunch and headed out to sit in Bryant Park so I could enjoy the gloriously cool (can I call 85 degrees glorious?) afternoon air. Once, when a particularly large gust of wind blew through, I even shivered. It felt amazing!
Well, we've inched our way forward less than a carlength since I started this post. It will probably be a miracle if we make it out of town at all. But I'm not annoyed at all, because I am still mystified by the fact that when I press the "publish post" button in a moment, this will suddenly be available for you to read online. And all while I am riding along in a bus!
