My Commute

Some of you know, but for those who don't, my commute to work is 53 miles. Yes, that's freakin one-way. There was a time I would work from home 2 days a week so I didn't have to abuse myself driving each day, but lately I've been going into the office every day and I've got to confess that I'm getting my 'road rage' back pretty friggin quickly. Oh, and to top if off, my commute is in 'The Acura'. ...ugh!

Today's ride home was probably the peak of misery for me. Usually, I can sort of sit back, set my expectation for a long ride home, and listen to my iPod to pass time by, but today was basically like shoving broken glass up your pooper for fun. My back hurt, traffic was heavy and it was raining (which, of course, makes everyone slow down even more because Houston will flood if you spit on it). ..and twice, I almost got creamed by people who weren't paying attention to the road.














The only good part was that my trusty piece of crap Acura got me home and kept me dry doing it. Way to go, girl!
