Ensign, Warp 7. Engage.

I got in the car, I belted up, I pressed the gas.

I didn't have to wait for a train or lights or wrecks or stupid people who tap their brakes for NO reason or sugar cane falling off of a truck in front of me or buses or garbage trucks or Entergy trucks or Cox trucks.

There were no "side roads of futility" taken or explored because "they might be faster." (they're not)

I didn't have to stop.

Today all the right songs were playing on the radio.

Today I got home in 45 minutes!

Today I DROVE home, I didn't just tap my brakes for an hour and a half.

World I am home.



(First time since Katrina that I've arrived home in less than double the normal commute time!)
