I hate traffic. It hasn't bugged me until recently. This is probably due to the fact I never had to drive regularly during rush hour. In the last two months, I have done just that and I don't understand how people do it. Sitting in your car going nowhere getting frustrated has the minutes pass by; Just doesn't sound like a fun time to me. UFC takes the train in from Hamilton (a city just west of Toronto also known as The Hammer) and spends that time reading or sleeping. When I go to work down at the university, I take the subway and read. It's so much nicer. Don't have to think about anything except missing my stop.
I know I sound like bad ad for public transportation but with everyone talking about going green, it only makes sense to these little things. Another plus is that you get to act all high and mighty if you so choose. I just do it to avoid the headache of traffic and I don't understand why more people don't.
Now all I need is an MP3 player to listen to during the ride.

Now, I know this doesn't sound like a post that truly celebrates the last seven years but I couldn't think of anything that sums up my feelings about blogging for all these years. Post a song, mentioning the anniversary... that's about all I've got in me in terms of celebration. So I'll leave it at that and I'll thank all the random people looking for Rick Mercer's blog for reading.
