1. I'm sick. :-( I think I'm single-handedly keeping the Kleenex corporation in business. *honks nose*
2. On my way home from work today, I was driving between 5 and 7 mph over the speed limit and getting tailgated by the youngish guy behind me, who was riding about two inches from my bumper and straddling the center line (looking to pass, I assume). When I put on my turn signal, he violently threw up his hands in a gesture of rage, since he was apparently planning on turning onto the same street and couldn't stand the thought of following me for one more second. As soon as we turned, he whizzed by me (disregarding the solid double line and the fact that we were rounding a curve).
Now, clearly he was a bit of a jerk, or at least in a really big hurry. But I'm just curious, is 5-7 over the speed limit really that slow?
3. Just for kicks: ask me anything (fannish, personal, whatever) and I will probably answer. :-)
