Yay mass transit
May. 7th, 2023 10:15 pmGot a text from the Kid this morning that she had heard from cousins Steve and Amy that they would be in town for the 5 Boro Bike Ride today, and they would try and stop in the coffee shop when they reached Brooklyn if they could. So I contacted ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
mashfanficchick and told zer that, and then after breakfast and coffee I showered and dressed and for the first time headed to the coffee shop by mass transit.
I was surprised by just how easy it was. I took the 20 bus to the subway, as normal, then the 7 train to Court Square, then the G from there, and that goes right to the street the shop is on and it's only a few blocks.
So I hung out in the shop most of the day, got there by 1:00. Sadly, Steve and Amy ended up not being able to come by after all, but I enjoyed seeing the Kid, and was glad to find out just how easy it was to get there.mashfanficchick and zer mother came by at 5:30, just enough time to have a cup with us, and then we left, and went shopping at Wegman's.
At Wegman's I got sushi for dinner and a couple of things I needed, and then they brought me home. I ate my sushi, called Middle Brother, and then Skyped the FWiB for a little over an hour.
Called Oldest Brother three times during the day as usual, didn't call the Kid since I saw her today, and anyway she's going out tonight with her boyfriend.
Now time for bed.
Gratitude list:
1. The FWiB.
2. The Kid.
3. The coffee shop is doing well.
4. Mass transit makes it easy to get there.
5. Beautiful day.
6. Sushi.
