Aug. 2nd, 2005 11:36 pmNext time we do this trip, we leave far earlier. Either that or we develop a car that can fly.
We left around 11, after mom gave us practically everything in the house that was edible. We hit nasty traffic so it took us two hours to get out of new york. We hit traffic on the goethels bridge that was so bad, I parked my car. It was insane.
After that, traffic moved really well. I got to nearly the end of new jersey before I finally had to stop to get gas. I must compliment the new jersey turnpike people. After driving in the car all day and being all nasty and sweaty and horrible, it was REALLY nice to find a bathroom that was so clean it even smelled nice. There were even flowers by the sinks. I felt almost civilized.
Things continued going well until we got to DC. Just as we were on 495, leaving dc, we hit rush hour. Took us over an hour to go about 10 miles. It made me so sad. I was hot and ben was miserable and it was all such horrible doom with no air conditioning. I could never sit in traffic like that every day. It was horrible. I don't know how people do it.
When we got home, we had the most wonderful pint of ice cream ever. It was cold and yummy and perfect. After that break, we brought all my stuff into the apartment. I own far too much stuff. That's all I've got to say on that.
After a nap and a shower, I feel a bit like a real person again. Though I'm kinda sore and really sunburned and not ready to start work tomorrow. I am going to go to bed soon though. Today was a very long day.
