My commute was really bad because I didn't ride. I took the subway. Some subway investigation shut the subway down for a few miles, and we all had to improvise with buses, etc. I had to pee really badly, and I was stuck on a bus, desperate to get off and go somewhere. NYC is a hostile place to people needing toilets, and I never know where I'll be turned away for my request. I found a park to hide in. Walked back to the subway which had resumed. Got in hours late. If I had ridden, I probably would not have gotten very wet in today's rain.
