Left work a little early today since I had been working late last night. I seem to struggle to actually get out of the office even when I have made up my mind to leave early.

Its noticable though, you can tell when you are ahead of the crowd. The subway was empty, relatively speaking. I think the rush hour starts later in NY (a both ends of the day). The busiest subway trains seem to be those arriving in town in the morning at around 9.30am onwards and then those leaving around 6pm. It seems to be slighty behind the typical rush hour I remember in London.....
