One of the benefits of my job is that for the most part I can plan sessions with clients in such a way that I can miss rush hour traffic. It’s not your typical 9-5 job. I would probably be a very ill tempered person if I had to deal with major traffic every day. Driving through traffic in Nashville is no the worst but it has it’s bad days.

Unfortunately today, a Saturday, I was not so lucky. Come on it’s Saturday! What would have normally been a two minute strip of road took me 20 minutes. Luckily I had my handy little notebook near by so I could jot down some ideas for blog posts. Yay, blogging saves the day! What would have even been better is if I had a Blackberry and I could have posted it right then and there. Anyways, I digress…

So, traffic is moving so slowly that I can actually write all of this almost legibly. (I’m having a hard time on some of the words) The rest of this is written as it was in my notebook…

I just passed by a guy that was totally rockin’ out in his car. Flailing his arms and everything. Good for him! If I pass him again maybe I can get a picture. I wonder what he is listening to.

The guy in front of me is using his water bottle as a spittoon how disgusting. I can’t watch this for the next 30 minutes, time to move.

Ah, better now I am behind a happy motorcyclist swerving his bike from side to side probably singing a little ditty in his head.

Born To Be Wild just came on the radio, perfect. Get your motor running, head out on the highway! Ughhh I better not start singing, you don’t want to hear that.

So, that was it and here is a picture of what all the traffic ruckus was all about. CONSTRUCTION! They condensed 4 lanes to 1.

Happy commuting everyone, I don’t envy you. But remember turn the radio up and throw those arms around, don’t mind the silly woman next to you in traffic writing and laughing hysterically. (she’s crazy!)
