I had to go out this morning of all mornings – it was snowing and I feel not-so-great. Yet, I hop into the car. And I got slightly aggravated.

A simple suggestion – will those who are not inclined to drive on snowy streets please stay home. How about a better idea? Why not just park the car and take the bus! It solves all problems. You can get where you want to go without causing other drivers to take the Lord’s name in vain. See, when you drive less than 10 miles per hour on River Road that is snow and slush covered, other drivers get upset. We want to drive, say, 20 miles per hour – a safe speed considering the conditions and the speed limit. But no, we have to crawl along while you drive slower than slow.

When that kid on the bike this morning zoomed past your car, that should show you that it is time to park the car at home and take the bus.

I am now in the office much calmer than when I was behind the wheel. Not that I feel great – today I took a tiny step backwards. Still coughing and my head is more congested than it was yesterday.

Today, I think I am going to cancel my visits. Push them off till tomorrow, if my visitees are so inclined.
