Traffic jam

Armand gave me a ride home under the rain. We had a huge traffic jam, probably due to an accident, on the stretch between Montbonnot and Crolles. I'd've gotten home faster taking the train. Oh, well. I got to stay at work a few more minutes and send some more email.

I'm thinking about spending a week at work without reading email or going to any meetings. The downside is that after a week like that, it would be hard to explain my normal productivity level. The upside would be that they'd never find out about my productivity. Since I'd be off email and out of meetings, I'd probably cease to exist outside my own mind. Nathalie could pinch me when I'd get home to see if I'm not dreaming. Or I could just check the showers for corpses.

Armand had to pick his daughter up in Chambéry. I told him to drop me off at the autoroute exit, and biked home. He was already about 20 minutes late.
