okay, fuck new york traffic

[rmd]

so, the "memorial of light" giant buglights pointed at the sky thing in nyc is nearly over. and so i figured i'd drive down and take a look at them. so i picked claudia up at work and started south and shoudl've gotten there around 10, which would give us an hour for ogling and then we could turn around and head north when they got shut off for the night.

except we ran into what was pretty much the most festering suckpile of traffic i've ever encountered in nyc ever. so, by the time we got in visible range of the main skyline, the lights were off.

grump.

the drive itself was great, tho. claudia read aloud from a dorothy sayers book for part of it and it was nice to cruise down these highways i haven't seen in 6 years.

And Rein's! There was nummy Rein's takeout.

Hee. Roadtripping is fun.

More fun when you get to see what you set out to see, no doubt. But fun nonetheless.
