Close enough to walk to work! (And far enough that it&#8217;s actually decent exercise to walk fast to work in the morning.) I feel a little nerdy doing the Mr. Rogers changing shoes thing at work, but what can you do?<\/p>\n<p>2. Farmer&#8217;s market in the plaza nearby on Tuesdays! (And apparently on Thursdays, too, from April-December). This was esp. useful early last week when we didn&#8217;t have enough food for lunch &#8212; I scored some Empire and Jonagold apples and averted starvation (or hitting the vending machines).<\/p>\n<p>3. OMG the BEST post office ever!!! Longtime (har) readers will recall that I have <a href=\"http:\/\/mauraweb.com\/blog\/?p=197\">post office issues<\/a>. This post office has TWO automated machines (in a space open 24\/7!) and stamp machines and windows and lots of space and forms and envelopes and a scale &#8212; incredible! It&#8217;s the main post office, of course, so it would have all of that stuff. It&#8217;s the post office promised land!<\/p>\n<p>4. Pretty close to the Goodwill, too (and you know how <a href=\"http:\/\/mauraweb.com\/blog\/?p=38\">I love the Goodwill<\/a>). And there&#8217;s other decent shopping nearby, very handy for errands.<\/p>\n<p>5. Convenient to eight (8!) subway lines, which makes for easy trips home, to Gus&#8217;s school, or into\/back from Manhattan (east AND west sides!). Not that I&#8217;ve taken the train to Gus&#8217;s school yet, but it&#8217;s only 2 stops away, what could be easier?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, writing.
