I started out by stopping by LA Fitness to take advantage of an enrollment deal that ends today. When I pulled into the parking lot I saw this big latin bodybuilder that assured me I was making the right decision to switch gyms. WHEW!
Then I figured it would be easy to hop on the highway to pick up my usual latte and breakfast sandwich but I was sorely mistaken. When I came around the bend I was surprised to see stop and go traffic that was mostly just stop traffic. On the typical (less than) 5 min drive from my apartment to the Sbux up the street took me 30 minutes instead today.
Why? You ask?
The three lane highway was down to one lane so that inmates could pick up trash along the road. This was at 930 AM on a weekday. I agree, it was one of the smartest times to pick for such an event.
When all the money making, law abiding (besides my driving) citizens are trying to make their way to work to fuel our economy and pay for these inmates prisons, we decided to hold them up by 30 min to an hour so that we could clean up a little trash. As if the amount of trash they picked up would clean up my neck of the woods.
I spent the rest of the afternoon dancing in front of my bathroom mirror while making mixed CD's for my 3 hour ride to the beach from Charlotte. I don't know what I am more excited about; the beach, or the amount of varied music I have managed to cram on to 10 CD's.
It was possibly impossible.
