T-Minus One Week

[kevin_standlee]

I did not concern myself with an alarm last night, woke up this morning when I did, made coffee in the room, had a cup of yogurt, and rather leisurely did my morning routine and then packed up and headed east. My timing being right to do so, I stopped for breakfast at the Rustic Table in Emigrant Gap, where they recognized me but apologized that my table was occupied. I enjoyed the breakfast anyway.

It was was a relatively routine drive home, but watching all of the heavy traffic going west made me glad I was going "counter-commute." I got home, unpacked, ran to Raley's for some groceries, and hope to get to bed early, for it's a regular work week ahead of me.

Current plans call for Lisa and me to leave next Sunday for the Bay Area, with us flying to Ireland the following day out of SFO.

It mentions commuters like yourself.

I'm glad they noticed us "super commuters." My RV doesn't leak and isn't sitting in the same place for long periods of time. I'm essentially using parking spaces at night that would otherwise be vacant, then parking at my employer's lot during the work day. I'm certainly not homeless.
