I Had Trouble in Getting to Bensonhurst

bethje and I went to Brooklyn to visit therealtavie, and it was more of a hassle than you might suspect. Beth finishes work at 4, so the bus we caught was at rush hour, and there was even more of a delay than they had planned for. The bus stopped at Port Authority, and we caught the subway from there, and it also had service delays. So yeah, that sucked, and it took about two hours to travel a few miles. Sometimes living near New York City isn't all it's cracked up to be. The visit was pretty cool, but short. We ate at an Italian restaurant that had good penne with sausage and not-as-great cheesecake, and I borrowed Tavie's copy of The Last Unicorn. I guess if we do something like that again, it'll have to be on a weekend. EDIT: Also, getting back was a hassle, because we had no idea at which gate at Port Authority our bus stopped. If the driver of a different bus hadn't told us, we might have missed it and had to wait another hour. How do people who catch buses from there regularly figure it out?
In other news, I think it might be time to suck it up and try going back into retail. I've tried applying for data entry and library jobs, but haven't had any luck. Retail is exhausting, but I need the money. Any other ideas for where to apply besides Walmart? I don't know of any Kmarts or Targets in the immediate area.
