Of course I would leave the comfort of hurricane alley in Florida to visit the safe DC metro area only to be hit by a hurricane. The second one this year that they've had.

Other than long term power outages and transportation being shut down it was relatively uneventful.

My flight home for Tuesday was cancelled on Sunday but I called a little after midnight on Tuesday and got straight trough to a JetBlue rep that was able re-book me the next day when they planned on resuming operations. There were only two seats left on the plane so I got lucky.

I was doubly lucky because in all of my infinite wisdom I didn't pack extra medication.
