Wet, wild, and windy Thursday

The Miata really isn't the best in this kind of weather. The wind was really moving the car around on the freeway. Although I did accidentally drift the turn on the 65 south on ramp, so that was fun.

Yeah this is one of those days where I'm not sure the Explorer would have been much better. Though the Miata feels very skittish in the wet and then with the wind it feels like it's trying to slide all over the freeway. Explorer just gets push side to side some.

I love coming back to work only to find out upper management has made things extremely harder to accomplish a simple task.

Drove into a parking lot on the freeway this morning.

My initial thought, "Seriously guys? Already? It isn't even 5:30 yet. It's too early for this ****."

Little more than normal traffic for me, but manageable.
