All day long on Friday, there were all kinds of dramatic events on the highways near Davis. There was the big chase with multiple hijackings that forced the cops to close the Yolo Causeway for six incredibly-inconvenient hours. Once they reopened the freeway, there was some kind of traffic accident on Chiles Road east of Mace that forced bystanders to bust out a car's windows in order to save a passenger from being roasted alive (or, at least that's what they said on KFBK radio). Nevertheless, my schedule was such that all these dramatic events did not delay my particular schedule.Nevertheless, after House Managing for "Titanic - the Musical" at DMTC Friday evening, I thought I'd pick up just a few groceries at the Safeway.
Big mistake. My luck ran out. Just two checkout lanes open, and everyone in Davis was trying to fit through them!
Leaving Safeway, I was startled to encounter Young Fiona waiting near the exit. She explained she was heading to a sleepover, but her friend's mom was still trapped in line (like a bug in amber).
People who have been through a shipwreck deserve better!
