It has been raining since last night. I love the rain, and it's so snuggly at night when you're in bed with the person you love listening to the rain outside.
In the morning traffic, however, it's an entirely different story.
Why can't people drive normailly in the rain? Why do they feel like they have to creep along 20 mph below the speed limit? I swear this morning, I was behind just such a bozo. The road is a two lane highway which was clear...meaning no standing water ANYWHERE. The speed limit is 55. This guy was doing 35-40 the entire 25 miles in front of me...resulting in high blood pressure and much cursing of him and all of his relatives back through the dawn of time. There was a line behind him as far as I could see in my rear view mirror.
Why would someone so timid take that particular road? There are other options, wider and more modern streets so he could have chosen one of those instead of holding up the morning commute the way he did.
Because of that guy, I was 15 minutes late for work. Grrr.
On a brighter note, my hubby and I did our Christmas gift inventory and we are almost completely finished shopping. Now I just have to wrap everything and mail the stuff that's going to the Florida folks! W00T!
