Came close... — 3 years ago
yesterday. I went to a doctor’s appt on the east side of L.A., and it was cancelled.. fooey… and having cleared the whole afternoon, I thought, gee, what can I do with this?
The freeways towards home were all clogged up with trouble—cement trucks overturned, all sorts of stuff. I started driving East on 10, with the vague idea of a little trip, that took hold and I was SO tempted to just go on ahead to the desert. Esp since it sounded like the Shuttle might land at Edwards (which it did.)
But sanity set in; I was really going to blow off two days if I did this. AND I wasn’t dressed for it.
Still I little sorry that I turned the car around after a late lunch and drove back to L.A.! (Then I woke up this morning to discover that the Shuttle DID land at Edwards—Darnit!)
