Pammie had to go to OC for work yesterday, and there was a horrific accident<\/a> on the 5, so she stopped at a cafe to wait out the traffic and enjoy a matcha green tea latte. She\u2019s just like my dad. They would rather wait out the traffic somewhere, but I prefer to just sit in the traffic and get to my destination faster. As long as I have Spotify and a bluetooth connection, I can sit in traffic for hours. It\u2019s usually a 2-hour drive between LA and SD, but it can take upwards of 4 hours on holiday weekends \ud83d\ude35\u200d\ud83d\udcab <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, on the drive back from my doctor’s appointment in LA, we hit traffic coming back, so my dad wanted to wait it out and eat dinner somewhere. We got back on the road around 6:45pm (usually non-traffic time in SD), but it was a parking lot on the 8. An ambo, police cars and two firetrucks zoomed past us on the shoulder. ‘Maybe someone’s dead up there,’ I mused to myself, and my mom was like, ‘Marion! Why are you always so morbid?!’ When we were finally able to creep past the accident, we saw an unconscious man on the ground getting CPR from the EMTs, his mangled motorcycle just ahead of him down the road. Yikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
