Ugh, the whole driving thing is really not sitting well with me since the wreck. Today is the first day I’ve driven around doing errands and I got spooked twice. When I pulled into the parking garage in Decatur, someone put their car in reverse and the lights made me freak out, complete with pounding heart. Then, as I was sitting in the turn lane on Lawrenceville Hwy going into the mall, a car pulled out in front of a big pickup with a trailer going the other direction and the screeching tires almost made me faint. I was shaking and my heart was pounding like crazy. Bleh. Everyone told me that it’d be this way for a while. I can only imagine what it’s like for people who’ve been in horrible accidents with injuries! Gods, I don’t see how they can be in a car at all!!
Some asshole was behind me at a light in Decatur blowing his horn incessantly because I wouldn’t turn left across oncoming traffic, but there was a huge FedEx truck and I couldn’t see! I’ll be damned if I’m gonna trash the other side of my car for some jerkoff who apparently has no problem turning blindly in front of traffic. Asshole. I flipped him off and screamed at him. It made me feel better because I was fighting mad. Fucking assholes! Not being careful enough about blind spots is what got me in trouble in the first place!! GRRRRR!
I plan to only drive in the middle of the day and avoid the places that I know are tricky. And to avoid getting out of my car and POUNDING the next fucking asshole that blows his horn to make me go when he thinks I should. I’m SO gonna get shot for yelling at the ghetto dwellers around here!
