Interstate Masochism
It took almost two hours to get to work today. Two traffic accidents and one breakdown causes a bulk of the slow moving, I think. I’m wondering how I can avoid some of this? Tomorrow I plan on leaving at 7AM to see what the traffic is like before the 9-5 crowd is on the road. It could be just as bad, which would suck, but if it is much lighter, waking up at 6AM will be worth it as I’ll have less stress on my car and myself during the ride. If I find I get to work way too early, I’ll just stop off at a coffee shop and read until I feel like coming in. I hate being late and today was tough. I didn’t freak out like I used to a year ago commuting, but it definitely wasn’t pleasant.
