Dallas Drivers and Rain. Not a Fun Mix
What is it about rain that completely impairs some people when they drive. Are they really staring up at the sky asking themselves "WTF is this wet stuff?" that they cant see that they are blocking up traffic for 4 miles going 2 miles an hour?
I left home at 7:05 this morning. Plenty of time to get to work on any of the previous 11 days I had made the drive, a few occasions I even got here 10 or so minutes early. Not today boy. Nope, today I clocked in at the hh:mm equivalent of my birthday. A full 47 minutes late. No matter what I did, it was the wrong way to go.
I started out on Forest but it was blocked because of a wreck that forced traffic onto the already backed up intersection/spaghetti bowl where I75N meets 635W. I sat in traffic long enough to get to the first exit off of 635W and then cut back over to Forest, which is my normal route to work.. and I mean, how backed up could it be if they had it blocked 1 mile east? OMG.. Crazy idiots. It was full of (10, binary) types of idiots.... idiots who were either staring at the sky trying to figure out where the water was coming from... or they were the dumb idiots too dumb to realize that the other group was staring at the sky and would run up on their buts and then cut in front of you almost taking off your front bumper.
I got to work and I actually was given something to do fairly quickly. About 10:00 I had to go make a pot of coffee because it was absolutely freezing in my office. Now it's lunch time. I've got a loaf of bread from Panera and I have a package of cheese and a package of turkey. Hopefully that will tide me over until we start cooking this evening.
Will post pictures later this evening. Have a good rainy day and watch out for the sky-watchers.. especially the ones who dont have sunroofs so they stick their head out the window to look up.
