over the river and through the woods

I looked at Google Maps this morning, and it told me that I live 11.8 miles and 23 minutes from CSI.

This might be true if I didn’t take the R train to Bay Ridge, and then the rather idiosyncratic S93 from Bay Ridge to CSI.  Other times, I take the R to Rector St in Manhattan, and then get the X10 bus to CSI.  On an exceptionally bad day, I take the R to Bay Ridge, the S53 to Victory Blvd and Clove Road, then transfer to the S62.  And then of course when I get to CSI, I get on the campus loop bus, which is also, well, idiosyncratic.  It almost always rains when I go to CSI.  It seems like a statistical improbability, but it’s true.  I’m at CSI right now, and it was snowing/raining when i came this morning.  We’ll see how it’s doing when I leave, in about 2 hours.

On days when I come to the Macaulay Center, I just on the R, take it 3 very short stops, and then get on the B or the D train, and it is a fast easy ride.

I spent my commute home from Friday’s class trying to think of a theme song for my commute, but I can’t come up with anything yet.   I’m going to make a podcast tour of my commute to share with you.  More to come soon.
