I have really bad car-ma

It snowed in Seattle again today. Well, north and / or east of Seattle proper. I had a few inches of snow at my house before I left for work today, so I decided to take the bus.

I thought I was being smart.

Well...

On the way there, my bus got stuck after the driver said, "the freeway is frozen, so we're going my way today." After several minutes of sanding and doing other bus driver tricks, everyone got off the bus, walked back to the transit center and waited for another bus.

Got to work 20 minutes late. Not too bad considering the snow.

On the way home, I begged out of a meeting in order to get home before the icy nightmare that is predicted for this evening.

I thought I was being smart.

I'm about 2/3 of the way home and the bus gets rear-ended (HARD) by some jackass older gentleman. His car is totalled. We have to write incident reports. My arm hurts. A lot. It was getting better.

Sigh.

I wonder if I should just call myself the cat lady, lock myself in my house and never leave?

Then, I will forever be...
The Single Gal
