Update - Weds 10/31/12 - my commute

(download)

Weds - 10/31/12 - David's 4th bday! I left the house at 7:15a. Drove and picked up Steve at Starbucks, since no trains were running. See video of our commute in over the bridge a steady crawl.
Dropped him off around 61 and 1st and he jumped into the car in front of us. It was a taxi. That was convenient. The first parking garage near work /hospital was already full at 8:30a. The next garage wanted $45 for the day, but I had to at least try to get cheaper since I had some time. I found a place on 72nd and York. $15 for the day! Nice again. The hospital and dr's offices did not have phone lines due to the telephone company losing power all day. My day was fine. I taught my classes and one of Shelley's classes, but only 2 of the 8 users showed up. The commute home was not near as smooth. I drove 45 mins to go 8 blocks. Once I got on the Queensboro bridge I made it home in good time. Total of 1 hour 37 mins. I can't really complain, right?
