Update, and rant
Sep. 12th, 2004 09:17 amWell, as we catch up to the wandering vixen again, we find her sitting in La Grange, GA, after having slept the night away. She's just sent a reply to an email from one of her sweeties, and felt the need to update here too, plus post a small rant about idiot drivers. So, let's spy over her shoulder as she writes, ok?
Shhh, don't let her know we are watching her..... um.... you know.
Well, here I am, out of Texas again. The damn Texas curse caught me again on Thursday afternoon. I swear, I don't know what it is, but every time I go down there, something weird happens to me. This time, it was not my fault again. I was doing exactly what I should have been doing. I was traveling east on I-10 in Beaumont, TX. in a well marked construction zone. The signs clearly stated 55 mph, and all trucks must use right lane only. So this is what I was doing, when all of a sudden I see an orange blur and hear a loud Thump.. thump thump. I look out my driver's side window to see a Schneider semi passing me in the zone, doing at least 70 mph, and the sound was his trailer hitting my mirror 3 times. 3 times! What a f..king idiot! Oh was I pissed. And no one on the CB would give me his trailer number, so I had to wait until I got out of the zone to catch up to him, which I finally did. I sure did report him both to Arrow and his company. It's jerks like this that cause accidents. And the other drivers on the radio were not much better, having told me to just speed up and catch him. I REFUSE to speed in construction zones. Now, normally, I don't really want to see the cops bust trucks, but that time, when of course there were no cops around, I really would have loved to see him get busted and ticketed. It tore the housing of my driver's side mirror all apart, which is right now being held together with some duct tape on the inside. Luckily, the glass didn't break, but I don't really know how it didn't.
Sheesh!
Hey... what are you people doing? Looking over my shoulder??? WTF??!! Quit looking down my shirt!
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
