The "Scenic" Route part 3

I had a 3 hour commute home today. It was less than fun, but not bad. Okay, well not all good, but not all bad. Here it is. I took notes on my phone since I did have 3 hours. Oh, and let me also state that I was wearing shoes (flats) that are too small for me. Okay, and we go...

• Left work at 4:40pm to get a head start on commuter's traffic
• Got on a non-air conditioned subway at Osgoode station to St. George
• There's a "mechanical problem" aka smell of smoke on track level at Dundas West station and all of the trains are out of service from Christie station.
• Approximately at 5:10pm get on packed Christie station platform and struggle to make my way outside
• Walk to Ossington station and got on a bus. Good thing it was air conditioned. I was hot and sweaty.
• Got off at Queen and Ossington and walked to 3 streetcar stops... I have my reasons
  
• After three streetcars drove by, I finally got on and went to Long Branch station and arrived at 6:23pm
• At Long Branch station the Mississauga bus on Dixie takes off as I'm walking towards it. FML
• Change of plan. The Lakeshore bus to Clarkson arrives. I decide to take that route instead and transfer at Clarkson. I didn't want to wait 15 minutes for the Dixie bus. It's 6:38pm
  
• Thank goodness for air conditioned buses. Why were the windows open?
• Of course, there is construction on Lakeshore and the bus driver was driving slower than I like or I'm used to.
• Arrived at Port Credit station at 6:51pm and sat there for 3 minutes.
• Arrived at Clarkson station at 7:08pm. The 45 bus was behind the bus that I was on so there's no way that I would miss it going home.
• Finally on my last mode of public transportation for the day. On the 45 going home at 7:10pm
• In my house at 7:41pm.

All of this is true. And the best part was, the train problems cleared at about 5:20pm. FANTASTIC! At the same time, I probably would've been crammed into a hot, stinky, and sweaty subway car and would have to wait a long time before I actually got on. So, was the scenic route worth it? Maybe, I don't know. I'll find out tomorrow.
