Wrod on the left hand turns.

Timid and/or slow drivers on the freeway infuriate me. It's a FREEWAY, not your suburban street! IMHO, slow drivers are the most dangerous people on the road because they force otherwise normal drivers to do dangerous things just get around them.

bon, I think the moving into the intersection on a left turn, IMHO, doesn't matter so much for the first car but is a courtesy to the second. The first car is going to get through anyway, it's the second that won't.

That being said, I too think that being angry about those who don't inch forward is sort of overblown.

Eh--often, what I've seen is that the ones who don't inch forward are then too slow/timid to get out there in time to get through at all, and have to wait another cycle.

But I also remember being 16 and scared to death I was going to hit something. Or someone. Or be hit.

On a different note: i actually got a great response (one) from an ad I put up on a personals site. Huh! We'll see--from what she said description-wise, I suspect she's not quite my type, but I really liked what she wrote, so maybe a friend at least...and I'm certainly eager to see a picture...

Randomly, if I wanted to make those thumbprint cookies with jam in the middle, would I just use a basic sugar cookie recipe? Googling shows me ones that are rolled in nuts or whatever, which seems more elaborate than I'm looking for.

Jesse, I'd think it would work out fine with sugar cookies.

I'm STARVING. And bored. Want cookies.

Here's a simple one, Jesse. Although I'd lose the chocolate chips. Ick.

Kat--mostly what I see is that the 1st person that doesn't pull out doesn't make the turn (these are big intersections like Olympic--you HAVE to get started), and when the light cycles again, then they pull forward. Lesson learned, but why on my time?

I guess I could also use one of the rolled-in-nuts recipes, too, eh. And either not roll them, or buy nuts! I'm thinking I'll bake for my minion's last day on Tuesday. I can't decide if I should do an all-staff thing, or just for our department. Hmm.

Yeah, that looks normal, minus the chips.

Hmmm... that's not what I see. But maybe I only see it because I'm the second car! Usually I see someone sitting back behind the white stop here line and then they go when the light turns amber.

There are just so many other things to be ragey about that it's pretty low on my list. Like the cost of gas in general that gets wasted as I wait for some jackass who hasn't figured out that merging is about turntaking and I have to wait for him to go right after the car in front of him did.

When driving I have a near-infinite ability to become enraged. I hate people who haven't decided where they're going to stop at the light, so they trickle fowards the whole time the light is red. Dude. Get to whatEVER distance you like behind the car in front of you and just stop. It's not complicated. Doofus.

Looking at a trailer for Baby Mama. It's not the awful one I saw earlier, with the surrogate peeing in the bathroom sink, but lawd-a-mercy, that's funny?
