it would've been a good day to call in
It took me over 2.5 hours to get in to work today. OVER 2.5 HOURS. I live approximately 26 miles from work, give or take one or two, and with the traffic it took me 2.25 hours to go ~16 miles. Insane. However, all is not lost! Thanks to my pretty little PDA I was able to enter a month's worth of receipts into my financial spreadsheet while I and my fellow commuters were at a standstill. Walking in and being able to shred a wad of receipts right off the bat helped calm me down a little bit, although I still wish I'd been in a position to just turn around and go home.
