My first six months working in New York I commuted from Newark. Between the drunks falling asleep on top of me on the 108 (I think it was) and the guys grabbing my on the shuttle train, I couldn't wait till I got my first apartment. I didn't even know enough to turn the radiator on--froze for the first week until I mentioned how cold it was to somebody--but heaven heaven heaven.

I'm bookmarking this post, so when I come to visit (read: play tourist) N.Y.C., I'll know who to contact!

Ah yes, the 108. I used to take it to Newark when I was going to Rutgers (another mistake.)I had to take a local bus to get to Journal Square to pick up the 108. All in all, my commute to Newark took 90 minutes each way.I did that for 2 years and then threw in the towel.
