You won't believe this...

...but I was stuck in traffic yesterday!

For half an hour!

In Las Cruces!

All right, so the circumstances explain it all, but it still sounds weird. There was a car wreck on the interstate, just north of an exit, so I couldn't get off the road. The reason I didn't see the accident ahead was because an overpass and a slight curve in the road obscured my view. In fact, I ended up in the wrong lane in the first place because I had moved over after seeing red, flashing lights on the wrong side of the highway. It took me 30 minutes to get from work to the gym, a trip that normally lasts 12.
