Oh please. I live in a Dallas suburb. I drive longer than an hour just to go out to dinner and I am STILL in Dallas. :rolleyes:

If it really burns your toast, arrange to meet him halfway for p/u and d/o.

DC has nice restaurants and shopping, so I never have to drive to far to those things. Now a trip to the amusement park is something different, but its rare.

I know, we all get it. You should never have to drive. Ever, ever:rolleyes:. You don't need to ever leave the confines of DC.

I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for that to be the case though.

Uh-huh. So does Dallas. That wasn't the point, but then, I suspect you know that. :rolleyes:

Doesn't the DC area have a pretty extensive public transportation system? I mean, other than the Tourmobile? I seem to remember visiting my family in the Crofton area and not really having to drive into the city. Did the entire system collapse in the past few years and I just didn't hear about it?

Yes, sad to say, yes it did. It happened last Thursday.:p

All of the former Metro stations are now underground swamps filled with formerly native wildlife. :D:D

I can't believe you missed that little news blurb.

Yep. But I suppose riding the Metro would be too much to expect of a SuperMomma.

Yup, we actually have a great(read very comprehensive) public transportation system around here.

Again, “Dad lives an hour away, wah, wah, wah:rolleyes:”. That’s not a very exact distance.

On a good day, I could be in West Virginia or Pennsylvania in “an hours” drive from DC:cool:.

That's because you people (*condescending sniff!*) live in tiny-eensy-itty-bitty states. In the far superior Western states, it can easily take hours upon hours to drive out-of-state. ;) :p

I was amazed when I visited Boston. I could visit 5 states in one day. Heck, I could SPIT into Rhode Island!:p

I'm with you, supermomma -- having to drive 1 hour each way stinks when you both used to live close. However, that's still in the metro area, not a move OUT of the area, so still reasonable. There is nothing that requires you both to stay within 5 minutes or whatever of each other, even though that would be very nice, I agree!
