Hello -

There was a fire in the Sepulveda pass near UCLA, so it took me about 1 hour to drive 5 miles yesterday. This was inchworm traffic, so it wasn't reasonable to turn off the ignition.

I was supposed to meet someone to pick up something about 40 miles N of my house tonight at 6:30.

I was at my friends house 10 miles S of my house. I ended up leaving from my friends house at 6:00.

Thought... well, I'll just get on the freeway and drive a little faster! It will be ok.

6:22... I have gotten about 5 miles. The person I am supposed to meet is already at the place we are meeting. I tell him I won't be there until 7 cause traffic is so bad. The freeway was backed up and practically at a dead stop so I went around the area that is usually congested on a surface street.

7:00... I FINALLY get on the freeway, and I am still pretty far away. Ended up flooring it all the way there, and arrived at 7:25.

Then to make matters worse, on the way I home I got off at the wrong exit.

I blew $20 worth of gas in 2 days because of this.
