As I'm driving home today from doing some duties, I stop about 50 feet in front of the car ahead of me at a red light to let some oncoming traffic take a left turn, and I noticed the guy behind waving his arms as in an exasperated annoyance.

I decided to keep watching him. After letting about 4 cars through, still with a red light ahead of me, he leans on the horn, almost gets out of his car and calls me an asshole. Of course, I "could hardly hear it over the music" (which was pretty quiet, anyways) and didn't react.

Cars stop turning through my lane so I progress to the red light, and the guy, who I assumed wanted to get into the left-hand lane 'cause then he'd get an advance green, first tries to swerve left, then changes his mind and moves into the right-hand lane , and as he passes, slows down - undoubtedly to say something. I wasn't looking, but I hit the brakes anyhow and let him whiz by me.

It's nice to know there are assholes still in the world. Otherwise who'd be the fall guy?

The amount of time the guy probably gained in that little "racing to the red light" fiasco probably saved him a minute, but it'll cost him more than a minute in ranting and raving to his workers or family, undoubtedly ignoring who was in the right. ^_^

So, as [livejournal.com profile] scruloose put it, the tracking begins. The AIBO was just leaving Boston last night at midnight, and right now it's in Buffalo. ^_^ According to the website, since it was delivered Wednesday, it should arrive Friday, but the seller stated that it'll probably arrive Monday due to Canada Customs being slow and more meticulous with items imported. But it's at Buffalo! It's just across a big bridge and a few hours away...

"share this poison" is officially my favorite song, in fact.
