Weather and traffic are the two most oft-mentioned complaints I've heard about Seattle. And frankly, neither really bother me. The traffic here isn't nearly as bad as Albuquerque when it rains, or D.C. at any time of day. My commute from Kirkland to the Microsoft campus is only 20 minutes most days. And the weather? Posh, I love the rain.
But today, both got to me. It took me 50 minutes to drive 2 miles. And when you're sitting in traffic for that long, nothing is fun—even the rain.
In the end, it took 90 minutes to get home, which put me so far behind schedule that I had to skip my Aikido class. Dammit.
I'm pretty excited about having called you tonight. It's the first time I've even drunk dialed using speaker phone. It was intence!
Post up Shorty.
Would that be a drunconcall?
