My wife and I work crazy hours and we sometimes do not have time to cook dinner. We eat out or delivery those days where we are too lazy to make a decent meal.
My wife had just gotten home and I called her to let her know I was on my way home. I told her that I would pick up something for dinner on the way home. As I'm driving my usual route on the highway, all the cars suddenly come to a stop. I'm thinking there must have been an accident or something. I'm one exit away and didn't feel like stopping anywhere to get something after sitting in traffic for 10-15 minutes and not moving. I called one of our local restaurants and ordered some food. I figured I would be home in time to pay for the food, so I didn't even think to call my wife to tell her I ordered for delivery.
The accident must have been a bad one because none of the cars were moving. Emergency vehicles kept speeding by but not me. I was stuck. I spaced out and forgot about the food.
