First Day!

So, I was about to start complaining about a bunch of things (it was kind of a long day), but then I realized that's the thing about some FSOs that drives me the craziest. And I figure, at least on my first day, I can try not to fit the complaining-FSO profile :)

So, I will tell you the part of the day that was hilarious: riding home on the metro, we stopped in the middle of the tunnel. I wasn't feeling so good. And felt even worse after we stopped. The metro driver came on the PA and said "Train in front of us, we'll be moving shortly." A few minutes later he said "There are actually two trains in front of us, we'll be moving shortly." The next announcement was "So, one of the trains ahead of us is having door problems, so we may be here for a few minutes. But then we'll be moving shortly." He paused. "I know I've said that several times to you, and, um....we're still sitting here." Too funny. His candid comment made my day.
