Time Out of Joint...
It's not that I don't pay attention when I commute in, I do...honestly. If you're in the left most lane on 95 northbound between 9 and 9:20am and you're not going at least 80, you'd probably know this. Mostly because I'm tailgating your ass. Pure and simple.
It's just that I don't focus on anything else.
From one exit above the Mass. Pike on I-95 to the route 2 split it should take me 5 to 7 minutes. From there to the I-93 split it should be at most, another 5 minutes. From there to exit 44 (where I get off *unasked for rimshot*) we're talkin' another 5 to 7 minutes.
If anyone of these segments takes longer than that, I become utterly baffled because I'm going slow enough to pull my head up and take a look about.
"Wait, there's a Route 3A as well as a Route 3?"
"Wow, that really large and annoying Home Depot kinda popped up out of no where near Reading."
"The Hobbs Brook Basin? Has that always been there?"
Situation Normal, Totally Zoned Out
