i am soooo happy that i drove the beater into work today!
i have the misfortune of working in jersey city which was pretty much underwater today. there were standing puddles of about 2-3 feet on the sideroads and intersections. i saw this brand new 745li stranded in a puddle that came up over his front lights! it was like a battlefield, there were flooded cars and tons of traffic everywhere. my s2000 w/ CAI which also happens to be lowered, wouldve surely have died a horrible wet death.
straddled to my rusty but trusty 1990 accord, i slowly crossed the nile in a ton of traffic. up front was a passat which slowly started to disappear into the murky depths. water started coming up over my hood then my worst fears were almost realized when the passat came to a grinding halt! i slowly maneuvered my way past him and into the shallow water. the accord stumbled as i gas'd her and the whine of the wet belts caused me some concern, but she shook it off like a true warrior and prepared for the next puddle eagerly.
i was pretty much pissed off at the world, considering that it took me about two and a half hours to travel 11 miles in my non-airconditioned accord (it was HUMID). but all was forgotten when i opened my garage and saw my baby there.. asleep and dry
ahhhh..

There's always a silver lining to every cloud...
except here in Southern California - where there's never clouds!
Nothing but
, and more !

Aren't you glad that we don't have 4's REALLY BORING weather in SoCal??? Pattern of partly sunny, very humid days coming up through the middle of next week. Humidity now 94% with fog! Chance of showers and storms each day, of course...

), but the older I get the lower my tolerance for crappy weather. I don't like weather to impact my plans. That's what I hate the most. Whether it's a snow storm that turns a normal 20 minute commute into an hour or a monsoon that prohibits me from driving my S. I guess I can sum it up this way...I want weather to happen AROUND me, not AT me.
