Have Yourself a Foggy Little Christmas

My Mom had a root canal today.

I on the other hand, spent SEVEN hours driving 300 miles in dense, impenetrable fog and pouring rain. A trip that normally takes five hours, took seven, because at times, I couldn't see more than one car ahead of me, or even tell if I was still on the road. The high mountain pass through Cresson and Ebensburg in Cambria County was so foggy that I drove with my hazard lights on at about 25 miles an hour.

Given a choice, I would have rather had the root canal.
