| The traffic on 128 has slowed to a crawl. I turned on the car radio, switching stations until I found one playing "The Little Drummer Boy". The car windows kept fogging over inside. My mother rubbed them with her mittens. The heater in her car wasn't working. I reached for the blanket in the back seat. |
