I didn’t drive the Nissan today so I didn’t have the dashboard chronometer to tell me exactly how long my commute lasted. I left the gas station near the house at about 7:48 (on a normal day that would be insanely late) and I got into a parking spot at 8:23. That’s 35 minutes (approximately) and that is a new record! The previous record was something like 38 or 39 minutes and it was set on Christmas Eve while I was still living in Tewksbury (which is closer to work than where I live now).
This calls for celebration! Tomorrow we will throw a huge feast in honor of this achievement! We will roast a turkey and have stuffing and mashed potatoes and pies and cranberry sauce and other weird vegetables that I don’t really like. We shall call this feast “Thanksgiving” and celebrate it annually in remembrance of this wonderful morning commute!(*)
