Seattle drivers are notoriously scatterbrained and easily confused/distracted by changes in the weather. "

When I lived across the sound in Silverdale, I was always amazed at the number of SUVs that ended up in the ditch, while the little sedans were able to keep on the road.

I visited my father at work once when he was working at an auto body repair shop. It was during a snow spell in NY. The lot and all bays were PACKED with SUV's. I asked him about it, and he was like "Eh, they are the dumbest drivers. They never read the manual. They think 'oh I have 4x4 I can drive in anything'. What they forget is, as soon as you hit the brake, it disengages the extra traction you had in 4x4 mode. So they drive too fast and break too hard, and give us lots of business".

I was always amazed at the number of SUVs that ended up in the ditch, while the little sedans were able to keep on the road.

This happened a lot in NE Ohio too and it was because the idjits who had SUVs thought "Oh, I have 4-wheel-- I can continue to drive as fast as I like i.e. exceed the speed limit!"

Having been a Jeep owner back then, I was deeply embarrassed by those people.

God, I'm so blah. I'm not working, have two parties to attend this weekend, and am seeing my family for the first time this year. No excuse for the blahs, yet here they are.

Yay, Zoe!

TCG, came home safely from work before the worst of the storm hit.

Teppy, I didn't read your lj yet. It's just a humbug coincidence. I wish you lived closer, we could be humbug together with a couple bottles of wine.

I non-humbug news, when I joined facebook I found an old friend who happened to travel to London this year. She know what an anglophile I am, so she sent me a package of English goodies!

Oh man. My first boyfriend is on Facebook and two other old high school friends have pointed him out to me. Not that he has friended me or I have friended him...just ughhh. Have also discovered that STBX and his brother are on FB. I only want people I want to keep up with on FB - geeeeesh. THIS is the reason LJ rocks for being able to lock posts.
