@yakkoTDI So your
[noun: drive; plural noun: drives] trip or journey in a car
was fine, but your determination and ambition to achieve something was not.
See above. But I did get stuck in terrible traffic on the NY State Thruway that prolonged a trip by over an hour. Ugh. I like driving, but not being stuck in traffic.
@mycya4me Well, this was a weekend away trip with no reasonable mass transit alternative. The drive is about 3 hours or less normally. There is no direct mass transit and it would take about, I think, 7 hours if I did it, with no car at the end to get to the destination. While I believe in mass transit, sometimes it does not work.
I just now (8:41am) opened the email from meh.com sent at 7:56 AM (44 minutes ago). I guess I should just go to meh.com at midnight and not wait for the gloriously funny emails?
There is no good reason to get there at midnight unless there is an Irk or something else likely to sell out. Having said that, I’ll admit to usually being there at midnight. The other reason is to have the first comment, which happened to me today for the first time.
I’m retired. And many people don’t work on Sundays.
@andyw My immediate thought was also “Are they assuming we all work on Sunday?”
Then I realized that this is officially for Monday, and most of us just jump on early (i.e. the night before).
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
My usual commute now-a-days is approximately 15 steps to my home office. Some times a few more depending on cat road blocks. I love working from home.
The drive was ok. It is the working part I don’t like.

@andyw then either use Mass transit or move somewhere else without a Major rush hour.

Probably should have saved this question for during the week.
@heartny very odd timing for the Meh-ditors.
Possibly they are nervous about dropping a $5 IRK any minute now (prob not).
This was Sunday most don’t work on Sunday.
…work?
Don’t work.
In a rental car at the moment and getting used to it.
