Early Morning Drama
I got up this morning, got dressed, had breakfast... you know the whole deal. It was great. I was not running late at all. When I left I knew that I had PLENTY of time to get out to work. I am tooling along the back roads, enjoying the sunshine, and trying to use the force of my will to keep the clouds away from the sun (regretfully my will was not strong enough). When, lo and behold!a road closed sign. After catching my breath and frantically looking around, I realized that, whew, I was okay. I was supposed to turn right before the closed road anyway. No problem. Oh wait... problem... While these roads are still considered "back" they are well-traveled. The majority of people go straight instead of turning where I do (which is why I turn - less traffic, less people, faster speeds - woohoo!). So, the road people decided to simply make everyone else turn also. This worked alright until we drive up to the light. Well, I say "drive up to the light" but it was more like "drive within sight of the light" and that's looking across from the top of a hill. I had to wait for EIGHT MINUTES (yeah... I counted) to get through that stupid light!And now I was late for work. |
