you call that a commute?

i'm beginning to hate knoxville. it's too close to fly but still a shity 3 hour drive. and it looks like i'll spend a lot of the next six months on this acquisition.

shit.

i used to think commuting from inman park to alpharetta sucked. can you even call driving three hours each way a commute?

got up at 5 to drive to knoxville, have meetings (albeit, fairly important and productive ones) and then drive back. got home at 8. not really that long of a workday, but spending six hours of it in the car blows.

my saving grace was that david my team mate likes the same kind of music and is cool with driving with all of the windows rolled down.

I-75 has also become unbelievably smelly. i don't know when or how this happened, b/c i've driven the portion from knoxville to atlanta 30+ times (same route as coming from my parents' house to emory during college). here are the smells we experienced last night:

• just south of knoxville: 40 foot pile of dirty diapers
• south of dayton, TN and cleveland, TN: rotting roadkill
• dalton, GA: skunk
• rome, GA: sweet bbq (which was a relief)

upon checking the b/berry at home last night, discovered that i need to be back in knoxville all day friday.

sweet.
