OMG! 3 hours to get home tonight.
I travel a whopping 6 miles by car, along your typical major surface street (shopping centers, fast food, etc.) Well, that road was closed tonight due to an accident - both directions. AND all the other routes were insane AND the police weren't letting anyone turn left anywhere. SO I went several miles out of my way in order to turn left, which was necessary to get home. AND it was my night to pick up the boys since DH has class. After-school care closes at 6:15. I got there at 7. And all this before the freezing rain started. DH just went back to his office after class. He may just sleep there.
SO instead of a quick dinner and heading to the gym, we had pizza rolls and chicken fries & now I'm on the couch in my jammies.
Why, oh why, do people live here!
I want to go home.
You must get off at the Huntington Metro station? We have stayed at the Days Inn on Rte 1. It is very congested there, I don't know how people there do it. Here in MI we have gotten more congested the past 20 yrs and it drives me nuts! Of course we have faster signal lights here, not the slow traffic lights like in VA.
My 25 minutes ride took me an hour last night!
