अनि साथी हो, कसको घरमा बत्ती बल्यो, को को अँध्यारैमा हो?

The street lights outside my residence came up on Saturday night but I was still in the dark as of this morning.

Yesterday's morning traffic was a bit busier than normal but the evening traffic turned out to be my worst commute ever. I-610 North between Kirby and Westheimer was backed up. Usually, the evening traffic flows smoothly (except for those exiting to 59) until slightly past the Westheimer exit while the opposite lanes are backed up. After finally exiting at Westheimer, I was hoping a smoother flow since I had noticed on Sunday that all traffic lights were functional in the Galleria area (and also hoping that more people were using the tollway). That did not help at all with the congestion. After finally reaching Chimney Rock, I thought of bypassing Westheimer by taking San Felipe. That was a very bad mistake. San Felipe was backed up even worse. None of the traffic lights were functional after crossing Voss. It took me over two hours (and an unknown additional amount of gasoline) to complete my 15 mile drive that usually took me around 35 to 40 minutes.
