So you guys know the Navy Annex huh?? Yes, parking totally sucks, thats why I am happy to just keep my cozy office in Crystal City as long as I can milk it. My own office, not a shared cubicle... parking in a garage, no walking, no rain or snow or cold, one elevator ride up, and a mall for errands!
We actually have parking permits at the Pentagon when I move, but the parking is across the street from the mall, so its still a long walk. There is a shuttle, but that takes forever too. I am weighing options now... I can take the VRE from F-burg to my office in CC, but then I still have to take the shuttle from here to the Annex, so it makes it a really long commute time-wise. I was considering trying the slug lines, but then I still have a long walk, and my fiancee thinks I will get murdered... lol. I was even thinking about getting one of those electric scooters to keep in my trunk... park at the mall and scooter over to the office!!
I have been seriously considering getting a motorcycle... I can use the commuter lanes, gets like 70 mpg, park right at the front gate, plus, I have always wanted a sportbike, I have been looking at Superhawks and CBR F3 and F4's. Just sucks in the cold weather.
