I guess this is proof of our innate ability to be our own worst enemy. I know I can survive and feel good through tomorrow's fasting, so why be nervous?
Just typing that little bit was very therapeutic for me.
Here's my rant for the week. Okay, maybe just today. And, it really isn't a rant, more of an observation of great annoyance.
In the two hundred to three hundred miles of driving I do in an average week to and from work, the gym, the store, and outings on the weekend I am noticing more and more people who don't seem to have turn signals on their cars. I mean, I'm sure if they had them they'd use them, right? Right?!
Just a gentle reminder to the world at large:
It is not rocket science.
You want to turn a direction other than the one in which the road you are on is traveling? You effing indicate!
Changing lanes? Pretty much a fantastic idea for you to signal.
You are turning left in the left turn only lane, YOU STILL USE YOUR SIGNAL!
You're turning out of a parking lot? YOU STILL NEED TO INDICATE!
This is a pretty basic rule of the driving world... It is so strongly ingrained in me that I apologize to whomever is listening (even if I am alone in the car) if I forget to signal. Hell, I even signal when it is unnecessary some times. Mainly, if I am going around a 90° corner (common in the surrounding farm areas).
You may be wondering why it is such a reflex for me, well, when I was younger I was pulled over for failure to signal... The cop didn't care that I turned off without signaling because I was a little shaken by the ass hat that almost side swiped me.... Neither here nor there.
Friday I will give you the highlights of tomorrow's fasting and how it feels after my workout (tomorrow is my gym night, Monday was Collin's).
Now to play some Need for Speed (much cheaper than a ticket).
