tired. i wanted to
sleep in but i had to take my brother-in-law to work today while his
car is in the shop. on the way to my job, there was a car blocking the road with it's right turn signal on, but refusing to actually
turn. the way was perfectly clear and there were more cars behind me so I felt it absolutely necessary to lay on the
horn. he still wouldn't move. so i screeched around him (probably not the coolest idea since i was in front of the
cop station). having just expressed a modicum of
road rage and feeling the
high from assholery, i continued to drive like an
asshole. on the final stretch to my
office, i drove as fast as i could. i had images of my boyfriends new RC car in my head... seeing it take corners sideways, doing 360s, stopping on a
dime. i knew i was pretty fast, but i did it anyway.
vrooom!
how
glorious it was. i put down the brake and started to turn left. as the car turned, i began to slide and the wheels made a perfect
dukes of hazzard screech. the back end fishtailed a bit, but all in all i took the corner perfectly. any faster and i would have wound up with my passenger side door embedded in the sign at the corner or maybe i would have rolled when my the wheels on the passenger side hit the curb. but i didn't. people stared. i felt like i just won a
race.
oh. my man's gunna have my
hide for this one, but all i can say is that i had a total awareness of my
car and what it was going to do.
everything happened as i thought it would and it was really quite fun. i am ready for
monday.
nighttime
ghastly news. the man is going away for three weeks. can't come home on weekends. i am
devastated. the thought of weekends without him leaves me feeling very lonely. the 23rd - 26th i'm going to visit my
mother. three weeks. at least.
ouch. sleeping
alone sucks. i think i'll have some
wine and
mope.
later nighttime
go see the
phallic peach.
