On Riding Metro Buses

I caught myself smiling today. I was riding a Metro bus.

I've been a fan of public transport for a while now...could have something to do with meeting the love of my life in the seat next to me on my way to work one morning. I commuted by bus the whole time I worked downtown and even for my first year of law school. This year, I started driving to school, and - until today - I hadn't realized how much I missed riding buses. They are dirty, uncomfortable, full of germy and interesting people, and they reflect the rawest part of our city. What's not to love?

Thanks to my externship, my buses and I have a date three times a week for the next 15 weeks. Hooray!
