Hang up and drive

#1. 50-something white male in a small white pick-up pulls in front of me in the parking lot and then proceeds to slowly weave between two lanes while putting on his seat belt. Said 50-something male is unable to accelerate while turning left on a green arrow onto Northwest Highway. Erratic behavior likely due to the fact that #1 has been talking on his cellphone the entire time.

#2. 40-something obese black female cruises along in a white Lincoln Towncar at 35 mph in a 50 mph zone on Northwest Highway, yet somehow manages to not let people pass her because she is talking on her cellphone.

#3. 40-something white female with stringy hair in brown Honda Civic cruises along at 40 mph in a 50 mph zone, a few cars in front of #2 on Northwest Highway. Also shares the ability to not let people pass her, maybe because she too is talking on her cell phone.

Driver in Red Grand Cherokee with the new fake mirror* screams obscenities for the 7 minute drive home from the park-and-ride.



Yoga was extra relaxing today. Candy was the substitute instructor, and we did twists.


*Isn't the fake mirror great? $6.99 from Auto Zone, not including tax. This is actually fake mirror #2. Fake mirror #1 lasted almost a year but blew off somewhere between Waco and Dallas two weekends ago.

Very nice fake mirror.

Thought of numerous times when I felt like screaming at the similar idiots on my commute.

I'll give you a call this weekend. Would love to know your Labor Day plans...

Sorry, "Thought of you" not "Thought of."
