What the shit happened today. I seriously almost crashed like, 4 times. Impending rain in L.A. makes people even more stupid.

It's going to be joy and happiness to commute back home.. Not! Usually the first rain "surprises" ppl so there will be a pile up somewhere. Hope not on the route I'll be taking. You would think its not...or such commuter hooptie, but I've seen that. Requires some effort, a lot of douchebaggery and/or ignorance of laws of physics, but yes. I didn't believe my eyes. I just love California drivers..

...was to pick me up at home and drive me there... But everything changed!! Suddenly he called and said that it prpbably would take a while before he was able to come, seemed like there was a bit of traffic.... Jaaaa well a couple of minutes doesn't change anything~ THEN, after about 15 minutes he called again, and said that he wouldn't make it there, something strange had happened there, where he...

Funny douchebag spotted in the traffic this morning.. This one was fixing her face in traffic lights behind me when the lights turned green. For courtesy, I revved a bit to wake her up from the tedious war painting task which I was smirking at in my rear view mirror. The reaction was angry look, rude gesturing and (my lip reading is not too good) a comment like "asshole, look I'm middle of very important...

I got away from the office a little earlier than I usually do. Traffic was heavy on the Bayfront Expressway, but it usually is at that time of the day. Just past University Avenue, however, I heard on KCBS that there was a "stalled limousine" near the Dumbarton toll plaza. In retrospect, I should have bailed out at the Ravenswood Day Use area and looped back around. Even driving around via the San...

...knowing that honking one's horn does nothing except make you feel like you're getting to scream at the person for being such a complete fucktard. And the guy lifts his hand in a wave, finds a hole in the traffic to my right (we're in the center lane, in front of the entrance to Walmart of all things), and rides on like nothing happened. And I'm left to drive on, shaking all the rest of the way home, with...

This is the part of my mornings I could live without. For once, it was not horrible today - just a slowdown. Some mornings it's just so annoying to see ppl changing lanes every 50yd and sit in the next traffic light next to me. On the bright side it's fairly entertaining to watch expressions and wonder what is going on in that guy's/gal's head..

If you are afraid to drive in anything but perfect weather? Please, do the rest of us a favor and STAY THE FUCK HOME! I hate spending an extra twenty minutes sitting in fucking traffic because ZOMGWTFBBQ!? there's a drop of rain!!!!! I hate people. It's not even coming down consistently enough to call it drizzle, but you'd think we were driving in a downpour based on people's reactions.

...in the tank. It was just after dropping the kids off at school. Naturally the roads were pretty busy… folks getting to work… folks doing as I was and ferrying kids to school. But that's OK, busy traffic doesn't phase me. I'm a careful driver. Pity not everyone on the road is as careful as me. This morning, as I was pulling out of the petrol station, waiting for a gap in the traffic that...

...have issues but, getting out of Fremont where we were both miserable helped tremenddously . When we go to Fremont to get the boys or for appointments or the like, I don't miss it. I don't miss the traffic, I don't miss the sirens, I don't miss the idiots, I don't miss the stupid people. I really don't miss our apartment. I'm sure at some point I will move back but, not any time soon, and not when...
