Stuck in Traffic

I was stuck in traffic last night and it was great.

I suppose it's nice to get home in 15 minutes instead of an hour, but I'm the type of guy who sees the silver lining to every cloud.

Of all the places to be stuck in traffic, I found the perfect place.  I was stuck on Spadina East.  The snow was dusting every branch of every tree.  The ice crystals were sparkling.  The character homes along the street were decorated for Christmas.  It felt like I was in a Norman Rockwell painting.  So I sat back, listened to the radio, and smiled at the passers by.  It was my little oasis that evening.
