Phoenix drivers are much worse than L.A. drivers.

I almost got into another car accident tonight. I almost hit a van head on. My mom, the dog and I were on our way back to her place after more packing/sorting at my apartment. We were travelling down Grand Avenue, just getting ready to get on the freeway. We had the left turn light, so it was all clear. The problem was, there was a train blocking part of traffic. Not my problem, the train caused me to have an extended green arrow. But, someone obviously was impatient and didn't want to wait on the long light anymore, so he decided to speed through the intersection and right out in front of me. Thank God, I happened to (for whatever known reason) look over and see him zooming towards me and was able to hit the brakes in time to avoid hitting him. This is strange only in that I should have been looking in the opposite direction of where he was coming from and happened to glance over. I'm so upset, though. All the thoughts that run in your head, and my main one was, "Not again, I can't deal with this again." I'm happy there wasn't a collision, but pissed at this guy. I'm sorry you're in a hurry, dude, but you won't get there any faster if you kill someone."

Anyway, we got back to Mom's and had lots of ice cream and I feel better now. :) Peanut butter and fudge in vanilla. Yum.

So, tomorrow is my epidural with a different doctor. I've heard this one is competent. Yay! And if he's not, I'm going to be sedated this time, so I may not even feel him screw up! Double yay! Seriously, though, if I'm out of it, I don't have to worry about this one not letting the novacaine take effect before giving me the shot.
