上個週末有去問問 Clearwire. 後來發現他們把所有的網路電話給擋了下來…因為他們計畫出他們自己的網路電話服務. 可是我目前是用 Vonage, 所以當然就無法使用 Clearwire 了. Side Note: Study: U.S. hard place to be a kid Peanut butter recalled over salmonella: 花生醬含有沙門桿菌.

What A Day!
今天原本想從 Mariner Park & Ride 搭公車上班, 可是公車來早了些. 眼看公車就在 Overpass 上駛過. 想想沒有關係, 應該在 Mountlake Terrace Park & Ride 可以追上它. 很不幸的, 高速公路在 Lynnwood 塞車, 只見公車從 Carpool Lane 飛馳而過. 沒有希望在 Mountlake Terrace Park & Ride 追上了. 早上十點多, Lynnwood Transit Center 和 Ash Way Park & Ride 是沒有機會找到停車的地方. Edmonds 和 Swamp Creek Park & Ride 還要轉車, 太麻煩了. 想想也許可以試試 Eastmont Park & Ride. 往北轉回 Eastmont Park & Ride. 在 Eastmont Park & Ride 之前的紅綠燈, 正巧和 Sound Transit 公車相遇. 也許可以追上? 今天是什麼日子? 平常從沒停滿車子的 Eastmont Park & Ride, 今天竟然是停得滿滿的. 看看時間, 不如就回到原點 Mariner Park & Ride 算了. 到了 Mariner Park & Ride, 還有約五分鐘. 沒有問題了. 等了約十分鐘, 公車總算來了. 準備上車… 完蛋了, 我忘了公車票在車上了. 趕緊回到車上去拿. 當然又眼睜睜著看著公車走了. 然後 Déjà Vu 的再一次飛馳在高速公路往 Mountlake Terrace 的方向. 交通狀況不錯. 終於在 Mountlake Terrace Park & Ride 趕上了公車. 什麼日子嘛!!! 希望回程不要搭錯了公車!
