I spend the day running around town doing all the minor errands that I’ve let pile up. I had to buy some stamps, get my eczema cream prescription refilled, return books to the library, pick up some things from the grocery store, and get an oil change. I feel good that all these things are [...]
I cannot stand aggressive drivers!! Why do people feel the need to follow within a half a foot of my rear bumper and lay on the horn if they don’t think I’m moving fast enough — despite the fact that I’m already going at least 10-15mph over the speed limit? More often than not, these [...]
