I slept through the night! It's actually been a few weeks since I could say that. This also meant I was DEEP asleep when my alarm went off, so I hit the snooze a few times ... I'd given myself decent leeway, but I checked sigalert just in case. There was an accident on the 405 south, south of the 101. That's about as bad a location as possible as far as my commute goes.

I fired ugoogle maps and found a route through the mountains that would drop me on the 405 south of the accident. This took me through a scenic section of Mulholland drive, and even with most of that section restricting me to 30mph, I made it from Apartment to work solidly under an hour. I use these services on a daily basis, but it's times like these that they really shine.
