awfulhorrid: (Gotthold)
The roads this morning are probably the best they've been in the last two weeks. So why were people being so monumentally stupid this morning? When I left the house, my GPS listed an ETA of 08:02 ... now I know there's no way that's going to happen, but usually that means I'll get here by at least 08:15.

Then I hit line after line of cars at a dead stop for ... well, no particular reason that I could see. I saw no accidents, the roads were clear of snow or ice, there didn't seem to be any snipers, nor demons pulling people from their cars. There were no zombies attacking commuters, but that's probably because they would have obtained no substinance from the brains of most of these drivers.

By the time I hit Round Lake, the ETA was reading 08:23. Of course, that might have held up if there were no more drivers sitting around staring into space or picking their noses or whatever they were doing other than frickin' driving! Ahem. Sorry.

Final result: 08:41. (That's an hour and twenty minutes ... not the absolute worse commute time I've had here, but really frustrating for a "normal day" commute.)
