Something I wish I knew about sooner: there is a bus service called Limoliner that will take you from New York to Boston (and back again) for just $89 each way (some trips are $69 and some trips are $99). That’s less than a train ticket (most times). And it’s luxurious. And I bet the bathroom smells better than it does on the Megabus (which was so bad I opted to pay more and take the train on the way back when I went to NYC last June).
Of course, real luxury would be hiring an actual limo to drive you back and forth. Or taking a helicopter. Or a plane. This is affordable luxury. My favorite.
Been re-reading Watership Down. I loves it. Wikipedia calls it an adventure novel. That sounds about right.
I made the mistake of reading Watership Down right before bed last night. And then it was one am. I had to get up at quarter to five, and I was awake for a good portion of the night, so I got between three and four hours of sleep. Boy do I feel it. The book is totally worth it, tho. It tells the story of a group of rabbits (yes, rabbits) and how they end out starting a new warren, and all sorts of adventures therein.
[Did I use therein correctly? I don’t know. I am NOT going to google it, damn it. Just so tired.]
I guess it’s supposed to be a children’s book, but it is one of those things that is ageless. If you like a good ripping yarn with danger and adventure and hi-jinks, you would like this book.
I will finish Watership Down
