What’s my line?
I must’ve really been out of it last night. Coming home from work, I absentmindedly transferred to the wrong Metro line (Green instead of Yellow) at Gallery Place. Thankfully I realized my mistake sooner rather than later. Retracing my path back to L’Enfant Plaza to get on the Yellow, I thought I had everything under control, but when I got there, for some reason I promptly forgot to switch directions using the opposite platform. Argh! Perhaps my hunger-induced lightheadedness and the fact that I was so engrossed in reading Jasper Fforde’s The Eyre Affair, which had put me in a surreal state of mind, had something to do with it. So instead of my usual commute comprising two lines and one transfer, I ended up transferring a total of four times before finally arriving at Pentagon City. Yowza.
Anyway, thank goodness it’s Friday. Our office closed at 1 p.m. today to let everyone get an early jump on the holiday weekend, so this afternoon I was out enjoying the gorgeous weather.
Have a fun weekend, kids.
