Ok so lately I have been driving a lot. Especially in Wilmington, as I'm applying for jobs up there. Elkton smells bad, and most everything I do is in that direction. Besides I dream of some crappy apartment on the streets of a city, near some cafe that I can drop by to kill some time as a local that could go alone and know someone, or feel secure enough to just sit alone sipping coffee. It's kinda weird, I always said I would never live in a city. But anyway...

Something along the lines of "bitches and black people can't drive" was said to me not too long ago. So I decided on my long boring drive all over hell to apply at amazon.com and then integrity, where they referred me, to test this theory. I try not to be an -ist, but honestly the results didn't surprise me.

I was cut off by four people: 2 cops and 2 black women (none on cell phones)

People who were notably driving under the speed limit: 1 old man, 1 young guy on a phone, and at least 12 women (at least 4 of which were on cell phones) CELL PHONES SHOULD BE ILLEGAL FOR BAD DRIVERS... that means most of the population (including my dear younger sister, who almost always gets into close calls while talking to my mom on the way home from work, you should see my mom's face during these conversations). But just like I can't tell people to not smoke in their cars (and I never would cause I love to), I will not say anyone should not talk on the phone in their car... But here is a hint: If you here a loud, continuous horn blasting from behind you (possibly from a maroon 94 mercury sable) and it interrupts your conversation... you might want to STOP TALKING ON THE FUCKING CELL PHONE AND PAY ATTENTION.

Worst driver of the day: one white male ON A CELL PHONE with a girl in the car... hmmm...

I still have conluded that extra care will be taken when driving next to women and omg definitely black women, and jesus christ watch out for the wilmington police. Not concluded by race, gender, or otherwise; but simply by yesterdays observations. I will however, keep an occassional lookout for the psycho white male ON A CELL PHONE who is probably the reason my insurance costs so much fucking money.

Strangely I don't remember seeing any black men drivers, or noting any of them as bad drivers. I did ask a nice fella selling newspapers on the street for directions, and he was very kind. Ahh sleep, where there are no bad drivers.
