Carmageddon anyone

so lots going on tonight...was watching the 9pm news tonight to see how many fools are stuck on the 405 and saw Monticello KY pop up...a lady evidently actually jumped over the judges bench and went after the judge ...I am going to hope that maybe it was just the heat and humidity in KY that made her act a 'fool

Now on to the 405 closure...i have been hearing from some of my girlfriends in KY and my father..evidently the word has traveled some 2500 miles away.

For those of you who don't know the 405 freeway is one if not the busiest freeway in the world...You know all those times a couple of months ago when you would hear from me saying...ahhh just sitting on the 405...that is when our office was in Torrance and I would spend up to 3hours trying to get home on that devil of a freeway....

I have spent alot of time on the 405 in my short amount of time here..and we have really bonded..but i am happy to report I do not have to take that freeway anymore since our office has moved to Cypress...

It is so funny when I think back...we all know how they have been working on 64 construction since i was like 5 it feels like...but I used to get tore up when driving to Louisville...and it would take me 2 hours...well that was like 85 miles...now when i go to work..it is 55 miles....and still takes me 2 hours..crazy huh when you think about it...So when asked what have the freeways taught you..they have taught me patience!!

It is so funny out here they started months ago making it known about the 405 closure...the closure is needed to demolish a bridge so they can expand the 405..(please take note that it is already 5-6 lanes one way already) We would see on the signs at first saying expect delay...now they say...expect Big Delay...

I think they should read...DON'T DO IT...DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!

The other night on the news they were telling people if they had to get out...make sure to pack food, water, and a tent in your car...just in case you got stuck somewhere...

I mean who in their right mind would even think about venturing out...come on Californians..make me proud and have some sense about you.

So what are TC and I doing this weekend you ask....um if we cant get there by foot or bike we wont be there...we are not going anywhere..or doing anything...except watching the nightly news and making fun of the people who attempt to get out in this madness.....
