Fatigue? What fatigue?

eveglassYesterday morning was spent lazily. I actually got enough sleep, which was a nice change for this weekend.
At some point in the morning, Ian and I determined that he should go home by train in the afternoon, because nothing was keeping him in Toronto. So, a quick breakfast with Andrew, Kim, and Ian later, and Andrew drove Ian to the train station, and I drove to downtown Toronto to meet up with my D&D group. What I thought was supposed to be a 20-minute drive turned out to be 45 minutes. I was unimpressed.
Anyway. Gaming started around 3 pm and went until about 2:30 am. It was a fun game, including the death of all the major antagonists and my character being captured by a Daemon. It was fun, probably the highlight of my weekend. But, in the end, I only got to bed at 3:30 am, and was awakened by Andrew four hours later.
Now I'm looking at the traffic report. Just east of Toronto, on the Eastbound 401, there has been an accident and the entire highway is closed, both express and collector lanes. That's about 8 lanes of traffic not moving at all. I have no idea how far it's backed up. That means, therefore, that there's no way I'm getting out of Toronto until that's cleared up. Le sigh. At least I'll get some lesson planning done, I suppose. But this is truly frustrating.
Okay. Time to get ready. TTFN.
Edited, 8:30 am: And now I'm watching stand-up comics on TV. Yay.

Cu,
