dancerjodiIt took me five hours to get to work today.
Oh yeah, either I have really shitty tires or that was the worst ice I've ever driven over. I did a 180 degree turn on the ramp off of 128 near the Genuity building (I decided that I was sick of sliding all over the place and would take the backroads through Burlington - Woburn - Winchester - Arlington - Medford to get to Malden instead). Of course, most other people on that ramp just stopped dead or pulled over into the grass but dammit, I had to pee and I was hungry!
(I'm not a bad driver either, I've been driving in the Boston area for over 12 years, am a step 9 *and* had crappy piece of shit rear wheel-drive vehicles w/ cement blocks in the trunk for the first 5 years of my driving life. I'm just kind of dumbfounded at how crappy and terrifying this morning was at times)
Heh, and I leave for school in 2.5 hours. I wonder if I'll make it there by 4:00 or not for my class, I'm supposed to do a presentation.
I feel dissed, no fun snow to play in, just ice, ice baby :)

Date: 2003-12-02 09:39 am (UTC)it's kind of sad when _my_ commute was shorter than yours. :)
of course, I left buttcrack early; before anything got REALLY bad it seems. I've given up on thinking about lunch - delivery or otherwise, just since everything is a mess out there! Good thing there's pretzels here. *crunch crunch*
Heh
Date: 2003-12-02 09:44 am (UTC)What's "buttcrack early"? I leave my house at 6:30 every day :)
I had food in my car but had to pee as it was so I just wasn't going there!
Re: Heh
Date: 2003-12-02 10:30 am (UTC)Aside from travelling for trade shows (being on the road); I've never even been AWAKE that early for work.
And after today, I'm thinking I might go in even earlier, just so I can miss most of the evening traffic and all that FUN that goes with it.
I had no food in my car, but did have tissues. Thank goodness.
