Lordy! My commute this morning was over 3 hours. 90 minutes of that was spent standing in a packed, unmoving train between stations, while conductors dealt with flooded tunnels, busted signals, and 3 medical emergencies. Then the trains from my 'hood stopped running altogether.

I ended up walking 28 blocks to an alternate train, made several transfers, stopped for a sandwich at...wait for it...Subway!...and finally made it into work, amongst throngs of sweaty, angry New Yorkers who had to do roughly the same thing as me.

But I secretly love when things fall apart like this.
