Carpool to Newton

[msjay.livejournal.com]

I'm wondering if anyone on here drives to Newton (specifically the Needham St area). To make a long story short: On Tuesday night I was carving a pumpkin, cut my pinky deep enough to hit the tendon and am now having surgery on it today. My dilema is that I will have what has been described to me as a boxing glove of dressing covers my entire hand and partial arm... leaving me unable to drive in a safe manner. I would consider the T, but I would have to make at least 3 bus transfers, or a bus to lechmere and switch to D line later, or walk 20 mins to Davis and get on redline and switch at Park st. All the travel would require me to get up VERY early, which makes me sad.

I've been told my arm will also be in a plastic sling that does not keep my arm close to my body but actually in the air and away from it (extended arms like a zombie looking for brains type of situation) for about 6 weeks. hopefully after that my other fingers would be free so I could then drive myself after that point.

Also I must be at work from 8:30 - 5:30, but if you leave before 5:30, and can not wait, I could take the 59 bus to Watertown and have my parents drive me home. My main concern is actually getting to my job.

I didn't read your whole post, so maybe I shouldn't respond because maybe there was some sort of explanation as to why your panties are in a twist, but as far as an apology, you can keep on demanding guy. You won't find one here.

I didn't offer a suggestion because by the time I read, all the public transportation options had been covered, I don't have a car, and most of the other posters didn't feel compelled to be dicks and suggest he "bring a book." As far as your first comment, it was helpful (congratulations. golf clap), but now that's not the one I replied to, is it?

It was a personal opinion expressed in response to a comment from ron_newman and not aimed at the OP.

But clearly I'm wasting my time. Let's just close with my saying your intelligence is only matched by your charm.
