I woke up this morning to news that there was a major accident on IH-35 northbound in Pflugerville. Seven 18-wheelers and three cars were involved in the collision. And, thanks to spilt fuel, 35 was blocked off. Now, in a perfect world, this would not affect me. Why? Well, I drive south and the northbound lanes are closed (stupid rubberneckers made traffic just as bad on our side). Or, the accident was at 5:30 in the mornine and I leave at 8:15 (they finally reopened 35 in the afternoon).

Sigh. That is one of the two things that I hate about where I live: the commute sucks!
