I'm perfectly safe

 I received four calls this evening, all from people who were anxious to make sure that I had made it home safely.

I don't ride the Metro on the stretch of Red Line upon which today's crash occured, at least not during my work commute.  But I appreciate the thoughts of the people who called to check on me.

I thought of you when I heard this morning, so thanks for the update. xoxo Lyvvie (I also commented above and forgot to leave a name)

Hi, Lyvvie! Thanks for thinking of me:)

No one in my group at work was aboard that train, although a couple people were stuck on the Metro in the trains following it, a few stops behind. Lots of grumbles about lack of communication (equipment failure is how it was labeled), but everyone got home safely, if slowly.

I'm glad to hear you're safe. I saw the pictures on CNN -- very scary.

Scary for people in my office who were a few trains ahead or a few trains behind. Everyone was reminding themselves that as bad as the accident was, the Metro is still safer than driving.
