hitting a light

when you're driving around, what exactly is 'hitting a light'? see i used to think it meant a green light that you could drive right through. because a hit is a positive thing, as in hit or miss, hit being good and miss being bad. but lately i dunno if this translates to traffic lights. people seem to use hit more when talking about running into a red light, as in like, "i can make it in 20 minutes if i don't hit any lights." i'm still torn on this issue.

in matters that actually mean something, i now have a niece. josephine anne koven. sounds like someone from the 17th century, but i'm sure i'll get used to it. i can either go with joe, joey, or josie. think i'll go with joey. i wanted a girl because now i have a nephew and a niece. i'm also excited about having an infant in the family again because now i can bring back all those great baby-killing jokes that i ran into the ground two years ago after my sister had her first born. i know that sounds terrible, but come on, those jokes are hilarious. everyone knows that.

Don't underestimate old school names, they are awesome. I vote to call her Joey, as a tribute to Dawson's Creek.
