I think one thing that I totally abhored about the LA area when i lived there was the traffic. I feel for you. I remember taking 3 to 4 hours to get home on fridays. Oy!

ugh, traffic. When I lived in Seattle it took me two hours to get to work, without rush hour it was only 15 minutes away.

Oh, how well I remember being late to work when I was still working.  I was always running late! Rushing, running…..*smile*  I am a little better now at being on time, thankfully.  Enjoyed the post very much!!  *smile*

Ugh! I can definitely empathize, although I don’t have nearly as many good reasons as you. Mine goes under the heading of “don’t want to get out of bed because the company is too cute and the bed is too cozy”.

Happy TT! Mine is up too.

My favorite (and true) excuse was the extremely close lightning and parked under a tree.  Loved your list.

I didn’t do my TT this week, because I’m sick. I’m calling in sick from my blog, how pathetic is that? LOL
