I was totally surrounded…

Where did all the people come from? It’s like someone knocked over an anthill…there were cars everywhere as far as the eye could see. I knew I wasn’t going to get into work anytime soon.

Man, it took me 40 minutes to get to work….and I only live 15 minutes away. What is it about the first week of school that makes Madison go absolutely crazy? I know, the parents of first-time school-goers are taking them to school, but still….is that any reason to have traffic backed up from the Volkswagon dealership all the way out to Wall-Triana? I’m thinking more people need to carpool. It’s environmentally friendly and all, but most importantly, people wouldn’t be in my way! :)

That hybrid is looking better and better if more of my mornings are going be spent like this. At least everytime I hit the brakes it would charge my battery. If I’m gonna be stuck in traffic, it might as well do something for me. :D

    Wow, that didn’t quite turn out right. Oh well, I’m guessing you can figure out what it’s supposed to be…me sticking my tongue out at you :D

    Traffic flows the same down Research Park Blvd every day… that is unless some moron out on the arsenal decides to start a construction project on the gate and back traffic up past the turn for the interstate… but they would never do something like that :)

    The first day of class was horrible back in Starkville. It got a bit better after a week and after a month or so it got back to normal. After a while of that, I would spend those long drives in at the beginning of a semester yelling at all of them to just drop out now and save their parents some money!!!

    I was always the same way (except with parking) when I had a 9am class at Simrall. For the first week or two, there were no parking places unless you were willing to hike. Then, after about two weeks, you could magically get places relatively close to the building as people started dropping/skipping the 8am class.
