courteous driver
I took the online defensive driving class yesterday. It takes nearly 6 hours. The first time I took it (years ago, I swear) it seemed like I was constantly waiting for my time on each page to end. This time, whether it was a better version or I was just slower, the time for each page was about right. I occasionally had to wait but I also finished after my required time was up on many pages.
Now, anyone who's ridden with me knows I have a bit of road rage. I like to yell at other drivers. I even yell at them when I'm not driving, but I don't tailgate, I don't purposefully cut people off, I don't weave through traffic and I don't do that famous H-town move of getting off the freeway, driving really fast on the frontage road and then entering again in the hopes of getting a few cars ahead. It just seems futile to me. So I don't think I'll stop yelling anytime soon. My windows are usually rolled up and it amuses me and it helps me release my frustration. Passengers are hereby warned.

I am also a talking driver. My ex was a driving instructor and he thought that talking to other drivers was a precursor to road rage. I think that talking helps to diffuse any rage I might be building up whilst driving. I am also very witty and I like to think of creative ways to insult other's driving. My driving of course is always perfect, regardless of what the police officer said.
How come you had to take the courteous driver test online? I mean, did you have to, or did you just want to? I haven't talked to you in a while, but I found your blog!
Also, happy birthday! I'm going to wish you that in as many formats as possible today since I didn't actually send you a card (*hangs head in shame*). But I do want to have a Belated Birthday Bowling Blowout when you come to see me in Raleigh. Okay, totally off topic, I know, but...
Dude, I think I only sent you an e-card on your last b-day, so you have more than covered your celebration bases with me. That said, BOWLING! Whoo hoo!
