5:00 AM? Wtf?

I had to bring a friend to the airport for an obscenely early flight today. I ended up sleeping through 10 minutes of my cell phone's alarm and was on an already-right schedule. After all, who wants to get up at 4:15 AM rather than 4:30 AM to give yourself that little bit of extra cushion, right? I'm in the shower and thinking to myself, yeah I'm 10 minutes late but it shouldn't be a big deal. Traffic won't be bad at 5:00 AM. After all, who is on the road at 5:00 AM other than duck hunters and Krispy Kreme delivery people? Since it was a weekday, I though I could count on the hunting crowd to be somewhat muted in number---but boy was I wrong. I can't explain it, but it was bumper-to-bumper on I-10 with pickup trucks pulling boats. The rest of the morning was uneventful, but an interstate filled with pickup tricks pulling boats before sun-up on a weekday was just too strange not to mention.
