One day it occurred to her that upon puberty, it was like a package of femininity had been given to her for use and safekeeping. Wrapped in brown paper without any markings as it was, and so heavy in her hands, it could be anything. It could be a weapon. It could be a bomb. It could hurt someone, and that someone might end up herself. Someone had forgotten to give her the manuals. She had to learn to become a femininity munitions expert all on her own.

transit

Yesterday I took the Transbay bus into work.

Although BART is a substantial (though do-able in good weather) walk from my place, the Transbay P (Piedmont/Oakland Ave) line stops about three long blocks from my house, just before getting on the highway. It takes only ten minutes longer to get into the city this way, and then it's only three blocks from my office.

(I confess that, in my ignorance, I used to think that there was *a* Transbay bus line. But there are many.)

It's a very cozy ride. I can see why many people prefer it to BART. It's not as convenient -- I think they run about every 20 minutes to a half hour? -- and it costs more money, but compared to other modes of public transportation in the Bay Area (and I have tried most of them), it's swank. To those thinking of visiting from the city, I recommend this as your personal chariot.

Also, as it happens, the bus line (#11) to/from the Broadway BART stations also stops at the same place I picked up the P line. And across the street is a dessert place that looks worth investigating.
