Once more into the breach

[jethrien]

It took two and a half hours to get to work yesterday, almost all of it standing in the 30-something degree weather. (God bless long underwear.)The line for the ferry stretched for literal blocks, twice--there was one line to buy tickets and then another, equally long line for the boat once you had your ticket. By the time I got to work, I was exhausted. I'm pretty sure I've been more functional after three margaritas than I was most of yesterday--I was definitely well into "do not operate heavy machinery" mode. Hurray--pregnancy knows I'm not allowed to drink, so it will make me drunker than I ordinarily would get without making me drink anything!

Fortunately, Chuckro's office is next to a ferry terminal--he waited until midday when the line was a reasonable length and snagged me another pair of tickets. (You can only buy one round trip at a time, with cash, at the moment.) So today should be half the wait.

Today's going to be crazy--no one will know what's going on. Plus, my card expired. While they're going to credit the missing week, it hasn't happened yet, and I don't want to deal with the insane PATH ticket line when I have a ferry ticket already.
