We had a wicked storm here in New York early this morning! it was so bad it work me up from my drooling sleep, LOL. Anyway, I woke up about 5 and layed there just listening to thunder and lighting like i have never heard or saw before in my life. And i am a woman of a certain age, I have seen some storms, but not like this. I layed there until about 7. trying to figure out if i was going to go to work or not. The rain stopped about 7:15 so i said ok let me go ahead and get ready.

Long story short, once i got into the city i find out that all the trains are shut down!!!!!!!! OMG!! are you Fu*King kidding me. I called my boss and she said take a cab I will pay you back, or you can go home. I said ok i will take the cab. So here i am, she never made it in. I am out $20. So what would you have done? Went back home or came into work???

Was it really this morning? i could have sworn it was yesterday or something. Well i do remember i was sleeping and my mom was speaking or something and i heard her in my dreams and then i was little bit drowsy. but yeah it was an awesome storm even though i only heard most of it in my dreams.


myLot reputation of 97/100. 34momma (4819)   ranked 203 out of 38,237 in life  3 years ago

I would have staied at work:( When I lived in DC, they did train maintence durring the weekends and if my line wasn't the one being worked on, it was sharing with another line that was. It sucked, so when I knew that my train was not going to be working, I staied put and found stuff to do in the area I was in.

Not to mention the fact that you can't make money unless you're working, and what's better than being on mylot AT work! LOL


myLot reputation of 97/100. 34momma (4819)   ranked 203 out of 38,237 in life  3 years ago

Sorry to hear you didnt have such a good day today.
I would go in anyway. I need the money. Besides I dont get paid to take a day off. If I did I would take a day off on a really nice day so I can enjoy it.
I hope tomorrow is a better day for you.


myLot reputation of 97/100. 34momma (4819)   ranked 203 out of 38,237 in life  3 years ago

Really? Well, I recall light rain around midnight last night, at TriBeCa (I was at a concert), but no thunderstorm. I slept until 2pm today, though, so I missed it. Well, I'm glad I slept in, since I was planning on going to the Apple Store to get my ipod fixed, but without the subway, that would've been a burden anyway.

Anyway, I would've gone to work if I were you; it's always good to make more money. Besides that, you will see your boss another day, so she'll pay you back then.


myLot reputation of 97/100. 34momma (4819)   ranked 203 out of 38,237 in life  3 years ago

wow i would love to be you. sleeping until 2pm. LOL i saw her this morning and I got my money right here in my little hand! (smile) today has started out to be a good day

I suppose it would have depended if I had the $20 bucks on me at the time. I know those cabbies don't take IOU's or credit cards. Do they still drive on the sidewalks??


myLot reputation of 97/100. 34momma (4819)   ranked 203 out of 38,237 in life  3 years ago

LOL!! they only drive on the sidewalk when traffic is really heavy!! but i split the cost of the ride with a woman who was going the same way as me. so that worked out nicely. did you get my last PM?


myLot reputation of 93/100. easyliving (1541)   ranked 5,990 out of 38,237 in life  3 years ago

Not sure will have to take a look see. Things have been hecktic. Had to put mama in the hospital for some kinda routine surgery and they did it in EP so have to run back and forth about 100 miles round trip. So if I seem to be scarce for a few days I am. TTYL

I probably would have stayed at home. I have been to New York and I know how bad the weather can be over there. I thank the higher power that I live in California.

Oh dear..my Beloved never told me that there was a storm in New York yesterday. When I talk to him at lunch time I will ask him about it lol.
I would only go into work if it was doable and not hazardous..If it was too dangerous then I am sorry to say I would not bother unless it was a life and death situation. I would have to weigh the risks on all accounts then make a valid assessment of the situation.


myLot reputation of 97/100. 34momma (4819)   ranked 203 out of 38,237 in life  3 years ago

there are storms but nothing like yesterday!! it was crazy and from what i read in the paper there was damage done like never before. but i was ok, just hot as all heck
