Freedom!

I’ve had an unlimited metro card for about a month now. I had no idea how much of a difference this would make in my life. I go where I want to, when I want to. I don’t have to calculate how much I’ll spend on each trip. I make stops on my way home. I go see friends on a whim. Shop, explore. I love it!! So much so, I’ve been pondering getting rid of my car and joining ZipCar (www.zipcar.com) . However, I’ve put a moratorium on big decisions like this until 2006. Also, ZipCar does not have any cars located near me. Maybe when I move this spring . . . It would be nice to not to worry about my car anymore. No oil changes, no insurance, no fear of the timing belt breaking . . . I hate car care and I love my new metrocard.
