The fact that the traffic was such a straight shot going home tonight almost seems like an apology for this morning, even though it hardly makes up for sitting in traffic for over 45 minutes longer than I usually have to. I don't know what was with 93 but it was awful across the board, but what really fucked it up was that the shortcut through the Blue Hills reservation I usually take was closed, and this apparently wasn't planned since I didn't know until I came up on the locked gate and then had to get back on 93 along with everyone else who suddenly realized they couldn't use that shortcut (i.e. approximately half of Quincy), making the traffic even worse.
The good news is everyone else at work came in late too so no one got penalized. And someone came in after me and confirmed it was even worse in Weymouth. And add to that the fact that I did not sleep well at all last night plus this colossal pile of horseshit and the start of the day absolutely sucked.
Part of what got me through the day was knowing I had sloppy joe mix going in my slow cooker when I got home, which I will consume shortly.
