I just had to walk to the rockville metro station. Get on, and arrive at dupont circle about 25 minutes later, and walk on to work. Piece of Cake. but admittedly while I was watching the news this morning, I really did think my commute would be so screwed up! it's definitely a mess out there. i don't think we can take any more rain. oh I’m definitely one of the luckier ones.

It was a total commuter's nightmare this morning. I walked over to the Woodley Park Zoo/Adams Morgan Metro stop (god, is that a mouthful!) and got onto the Red Line to Metro Center where I would change over onto the Blue Line heading towards my stop. As soon as I got off the Red Line and went downstairs, there was pandemonium everywhere. WMATA officials were screaming at the top of their lungs to take the shuttle service to L'Enfant Plaza for those on the Blue Line. So, I exited the station, and there was this HUGE line of commuters that stretched all the way around the block. I asked a bystander what was going on, and he said it was the line for the shuttle service. I said, "Fuck this," and I took a cab instead, only it took me twelve minutes to find a cab. As you know with the DC cab drivers, you can't tell them where you're going at the passenger side window or else they'll shake their head and leave you behind. What I did was I got inside the cab, and refused to leave when the driver told me he didn't want to take me in the direction of my workplace. I told him the direction and after much haggling, he resigned himself to his fate as my erstwhile driver, and drove me there. I know. It was a total commuter’s nightmare this morning.
