Trip and I did it. We left at 0525 to catch the 0600 metro. 12 stops later, believe me I counted them, we got to our work stop and walked two blocks to the office. We made it in one hour turned around and came home. Trip only growled at one man who was apparently afraid of dogs. I was holding his leash close and told him "quiet" to let him know I was in charge of this situation and he responded so well. He is worn out and so am I. At one point there was standing room only on the train -- we had a seat-- and I was worried about the crowd and people being too close so I drew from him what I needed. There were two different men that kept staring but I held my tongue.

We are both exhausted.
