Had a rejuvenating evening with my boy and am feeling a lot better. Just in time for my monthly Tuesday-Wednesday with just me and the girls while Dawg goes off to learn Kumbaya a little bit more than the month before. (Thank you, Mom, for asking.)
The red line of DC Metro had a pretty bad accident Monday during the start of rush hour. I rode that line while I was there. The article also references a 1982 accident at the Woodley Park-Adams Morgan station, the starting point of the red line that B and I rode on. I feel all Final Destination all of a sudden. I’m not absolutely certain, but I’m guessing that NY Metro was assessing the situation in DC, which caused my ride home to have long delays for no apparent-to-us reason. I appreciate that, in retrospect. Always good to make sure not every Metro system is a target of something at the same time.
Ok, that was nice and cheery. Let’s change the topic to SpaceTweep! I am an editor there, thanks to Jenny! Did you know she and her husband work for NASA? They do. And they rock.
Aaaaaaaand, yes, I’m riding the NYC Metro (that’d be the subway) today. Go, me!

I am so glad that you are ok and were not hurt, I think I would avoid subways or really any kind of train type vehicle for a while. They seem to be having lots of problems lately!

Always happy to learn the Poppy was not hurt in any way. Did they ever figure out what caused that wreck, anyway? (I know – google that shit!)
:P

I keep reading that as “Forgotten Station”

Okay, just realized you said you rode that line ‘when you were there’ which was not necessarily the day of the crash…forgive me I appear to have suddenly lost my ability to read clearly.
