And I can't get to work. My work is on the side that the camera is on and I live on the other side... shizzle.
Evidentally a crane fell onto the Narrows Bridge and they shut down the freeway. It's going to suck come this evening when that gets backed up already...
They're building a second bridge to alleviate traffic and now I'm not sure I want to go on either of them.
It's really creepy and langoleer-ish (sp?) to see the highway completely empty like this.
I think I'll got wash my car.

I just called and said; "Don't think I'll be coming in today. At least not for a long time. Bye!" |

| That's why vanpools are nice for using the ferry (since they're pretty backed up now). Vanpools get priority loading (after bicycles and motorcycles). |

I could use an excuse like that. To bad there are like 9 bridges in Portland, that would have to go out.  |

| Dude that sucks. Although my boss lives on the far side, and so he couldn't come in to work today. So it's not all bad. |

That is sooo crazy. I thought about using that excuse "I couldn't make it to class, the tacoma bridge is out" but then I realized i live in seattle, on campus, and my class is litterally 100 feet away. damn! looks like i better head out
