Late for work,
and with good reason |
8/17/2002 |
I was on my way to work, and everything was going
great, until I got to the on-ramp for the highway. It was packed
with stationary cars. My mom used her cell phone to tell Wal-Mart I
would be late because there was obviously an accident that had
happened and was slowing down traffic. It took 30 freakin' minutes to
get onto the highway, and another 20 until we could go 55 mph. While
we were sitting there, stopped, I took out "The Hobbit", which I was
almost done reading for the second time, and I got half a chapter
done while reading between times when the cars were inching along. I
heard on the radio that a truck had jack-knifed and even went over
the median. When we passed the scene, the truck was gone and there
were 2 large pieces of the median broken away. I was 50 minutes
late, but it was kinda fun for me, and I'm glad I can find fun in
things like that when most of the people there were probably annoyed
out of their minds. |
