ninety-nine thousand and counting

Well, this evening on my way home, in a hurry as usual, I just couldn't take it--especially after being stood up for the first time ever. Mind you, I had spent an hour and a half trapped in traffic just a couple of hours earlier. So I did it, I passed a geriatric going the 25 mph speed limit on Twinbrook Parkway at 10:00 p.m. And I passed her on the right (she was too far to the left to do it safely). And as I did it, my car hit 99,000 miles. I couldn't have found a better way to celebrate.
