Ain't that the truth? I used to sometimes come home from work by driving through downtown. It was great. The city would be deserted and that was always a fairly magical thing. Then, after a few years of not doing it for some reason or other, I tried again. AAAHAHHH!!!! Where the hell did all those *PEOPLE* come from! OMG they LIVE there!!!! NOOOOOOO! I 'popped' down to Spec's downtown earlier this evening in search of one of the large tubs of Roast Garlic Hummus (Kroger only carries the little ones). Talk about *traffic*! It was insane.
