I tried making it more a part of my routine, because I had a bus stop in my neighborhood and the buses stopped charging a fare. I figure it was a good way to travel around town for free. The times weren’t great, but I was using it for little trips. One time a neighbor saw me waiting for the bus and called to make sure I was okay, that there wasn’t some weird emergency that meant I couldn’t drive… Yeah, no, just wanted to take public transit.

A few months later, they removed the bus stop by me. It’s 3/4 mile of steep hill away now, so I’m back in my car full time. Oh well, I tried.
