My Flog for November 7 + Commuting Blues

Sky Train this morning: There was some kind of 'technical problem' with the track between Westminster and 22nd Street Station, so when I skipped up the stairs (yeah, right) there was a wall of people waiting for a ride. After twice as long a wait as usual (maybe 7 minutes) a train came and we all piled on. Stood maybe for half the way, then sat the rest. Bus ride went well.

Bus this evening: Half an hour in an inch-by-inch parking lot - it felt like the bus was being moved by a few ants. Trouble on the Queensborough Bridge, saw 2 tow trucks and a flatbed, plus flashing cop car lights, at the end of the bridge - it took about half an hour for what is usually a 7-8 minute ride. Unfortunately, my transfer had expired while sitting on the bus which was sitting on the bridge - but I got on the SkyTrain anyway. Fortunately, no SkyTrain security were there checking tickets. SkyTrain ride went well.
