Reading the entries for today, it sounds like it was a fast commute day for most of us. Me too, me too! I thought it was because of the Excedrin Migraine I took before leaving, but maybe it was just a fast day all around.

I took a different route home yesterday, and it puts me on the one road where I'm willing to filter to the front at a red light. One car was stopped really close to the gutter pan; as I approached it I noticed the passenger's window was open. I couldn't resist! As I came up from behind I said, "Move over please," and was rewarded by seeing the passenger jump out of her seat and exclaim, "OH!"

S******ing, I went on my merry way and made my right turn at the light.

Then about a half mile further up a guy in a Porsche Boxster was pulling out of a parking lot on my right. He stopped, saw me, hesitated for less than a second, and then started to go. Too late. He realized he wasn't going to make it ahead of me and slammed on the brakes. I just gave him The Look.
