well ok, maybe not a "good" thing, so to speak, but it was certainly a *lot* less annoying today than usual. After having a full summer of very light traffic around the Community College that I drive by every day, I'd completely forgotten how the traffic got in that area during certain parts of the day. I was bewildered earlier this week when I found myself stopped at a green traffic light for no apparent reason. That is until I realized the fall semester had just started.
Today, on the drive home, stuck in the traffic waiting for the lights I ended up having a short conversation with a younger guy in the car next to me. The guy didin't know what I was driving and I had to explain what the car was. To which he thought it was cool.
I get through the heavy traffic, get home, and while I'm putting the cock-pit cover on the car I hear, "Hey Bubuh!" behind me. I turn around and there's an older guy in a pick-up truck and he procedes to tell me "those are one of the best cars to ever have! Don't ever sell it!" He new it was an MG, but not the year and tells me he has a '57 Bugeye. He tells me that if it came down to it "the wife would have to go"... heheh. We ended up shootin' the breeze for a few minutes before he decides he needs to get going.
It really made for a nice end to a really crappy day at the office that involved out sourced IT and having to get bosses to yell at people to get the job done.
