Atlanta

The good news is we made Atlanta with no difficulties other than the usual run of the mill traffic hell that is the 24/7 rule here. The bad news is Lexington is expecting thunderstorms throughout the day tomorrow and has posted flash flood warnings for the entire area.

Coming up here I wasn't driving until we got just outside the metro Atlanta area. I was tired (hey, this retirement stuff ain't easy) I tried to sleep but every time a big truck passed the car, unfailingly the wind from the truck moved the car and I was jolted awake sure that my death was imminent. Strange how that works, you are about half asleep and just about to doze off, suddenly the car makes an unexpected movement and an instant adrenalin fueled state of momentary panic occurs. No, I don't think it has to do with me a control freak who is uncomfortable with someone else driving. Please note; I didn't say a woman driving, I said someone other than me. although I admit some drivers scare me more than others.

I am told that I tend to complain (bitch) a bit. I disagree but I have been challenged to find something good to write about. Hmm, the suite is nice, because of my frequent guest points we were upgraded and the entire bill is complimentary. That is all good, however when I think of the money I have spent on hotel rooms, they should throw me an occasional bone. Oops, I think that qualifies as being somewhat negative (bitching again) OK, I got it, I promise, I finally understand and tomorrow I will be entirely positive. Maybe.
