Two general rules of thumb (insert your own "Barb got stitches on her thumb" joke here) for D.C. drivers are that traffic on Friday is lighter than it is the rest of the week, and that people freak out whenever there's any sort of moisture on the road. So on Fridays I usually allow myself to leave a little later than normal. However, this morning it was raining, which effectively canceled out the light Friday traffic. Only every time it's a Friday and raining, I forget that the rain cancels out the light traffic, so I continue to leave late. Silly me. However, I did get in on time this morning, and it didn't even really matter, because Krishni is telecommuting today. I just can't wait until the extraordinarily light summer traffic. Isn't school out yet?
Current song in my head:
"I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow" from O Brother, Where Art Thou?
