Today started out fine. I tried being at least one gear higher than usual. I am trying my level best (poorly) to be good. One mile into my drive I'd encountered a Lexus 20 MPH below the limit. Into second gear I went and around the Lexus. Now at a reasonable speed I enjoyed my next mile terminating at a stop sign where a Mini Cooper S sat waiting for an opening in traffic. We sat for a minute and when a huge opening presented itself the Cooper never moved even after I tapped my horn. The Lexus caught up finally just as the Cooper went and I followed closely.

The Cooper seemed to have an axe to grind, and was going to show me what dust was like. Although I am familiar with dust, the Mini could not seem to show me any. I tried not to use my brakes at all , but occasionally I'd need them. Kudos. If I was alone I would have been all over the brakes but I wasn't going too fast today.

If all my traffic was as quick, I would be happier than I am these days, but I must admit I did enjoy the drive regardless.

I am supposed to be at the track as we speak. I hurt my back/shoulder. I could not function took a muscle relaxer and did not get better. Barely slept and it hurts to breath too deeply.

Too bad as this is the easiest track for me to get to, not to mention I already paid.

maybe your next drive should be to the doctors office?
