This week and last week were pretty bad. Let's see what I can remember:
Today: got to work at 9:20. Woke up at 5 for no reason, laid in bed until 7, got on the train on time, and then the train got in late, creating a domino effect...by the time I got to Harvard Square at 8:52 I could have walked, but I was already exhausted.
Thursday: Got to work at 10:45. Had an appointment from 8-10, waited for the bus for over 30 minutes before it showed up and squirreled me off
Wednesday: Planned to go in for 8, woke up late, got in at 9. Had to get a co-worker to cover my butt on that one!
Tuesday: Slept late, got to work late. I must have, first e-mail went out at 9:36. Oops!
Monday: ...must have gotten to work on time, since my first email went out at 9:13
Last Friday: first email, 10:08. I vaguely remember being that late coming in...
Last Thursday: came in late, but knew I'd be late. Had a Dr's appointment
Last Wednesday: out sick. So dizzy and miserable. Blah
Last Tuesday: Late, late late. Recovering from Holiday. Blargh
Last Monday: No work! Holiday! w00t!

This week
So, yesterday was pretty good. I needed to leave the house by 6:30 to drop my stepdaughters off and drive into Boston for 9:00. I woke up at 6:20 - oops! I was at work by ten past though, and that included an unexpected re-fueling, getting lost in Providence (AGAIN!), finding on street parking and walking from there. I even got out of Boston and drove to Warwick in 75 minutes!!
Today was a NIGHTMARE... I planned to wake up at 4:45 and take the train in and hit the gym for about 90 minutes before work. I just couldn't get out of bed, and when I did I couldn't get moving. I finally ended up driving to the train station to catch my normal train which was going to be 25-30 minutes late. Needless to say I was seething. The train picked us up around 8, and I got to work around 9:30. I want to be pissy about it, but the guy that tried to jump onto the moving train and is in the hospital, not to mention the other 1,000+ people who were late to work were probably having a worse morning than me.
It's really important for me to keep things in perspective - the last time the MBTA made me super late was when that guy shot his family and then committed suicide on the tracks. Not only were multiple lines affected for hours (thousands of commuters) but here is a guy having such a bad time of things he's killing himself and others, not to mention what it must have been like for the survivors...
Anyway, hopefully a story will be up tomorrow and I will link to today's drama.
