So I passed my first section of the CPA exam. I got a 90. Work is good, not so busy anymore now that October 15th has passed. This week I the oppurtunity to take recruit out to lunch as part of the interview process. We took her to the Capital Grille at the Biltmore. Way nice place and great food. It was the same place that Deloitte took me when I interviewed 2 years ago. Today Deloitte catered lunch from Qdoba. It's kind of like Cafe Rio. Really good.
So I tried taking Light Rail to work instead of driving. I told myself if the commute by light rail is within a reasonable amount of my normal commute time then I will do my part and take public transportation. My normal commute is 30-45 minutes. 20 minutes on a good day. Well, both days this week that I have taken light rail it has taken me 1 hr 20 mintues to get to work. That's too long, light rail is out of the question for now. Unless they expand service and have it make less stops. I swear we were stopping every block. I'm not sure who designed the system here in Phoenix but they were smoking something funky.
Plus the people on light rail smelled really bad.
Chewbacca. That is what I'm going to be for Halloween. My sisters family is going to be characters from Star Wars. I decided to join in the action and be Chewbacca. I rented a sweet costume. Pictures to follow after Halloween.

I know what you mean about funky smelling people on public transportation. I ride BART, the bay area's electric train system, to school every day and you find some real characters on there. Luckily for me it ends up being cheaper and faster than driving into San Francisco. Now if only I could find someone to ask me to take people to lunch on their dime . . .
