Well, since this is my first blog, I decided to talk about my week as a driver.

I drive everywhere and I take my Mom everywhere she needs to go...

It is kinda like "Driving Ms. Daisy"

Trust me, me and Morgan Freeman are not having fun!

This week I ran my usual errands for Ms. Daisy and El Jeffe (my husband, since his name is Jeff thought it was appropriate)and I went to the gym, I had more than the normal traffic challenges.

Specifically,Q-tips...those drivers, that when you are behind them or they pull out and cut you off.... all you can see is the white "poofy" hair sticking over the top of the headrest.

Yes, for those of you that are slow, that is an old gray-haired person.

For some reason, during this last week, every single one of them that lives in H-town has pulled out in front of me, cut me off or generally caused driving mayhem. I swear it is on purpose!

Two of them have actually pulled out of a parking lot directly infront of me(ACK), and while I was standing upside down on my head with all my body parts, pressed, puckered or otherwise engaged on the turning and braking system of my truck... had the audacity to shoot me the ....um....flying finger!

Talk about stressful! And in my mind is " you evil old...#*@&*&$&*@" .... not out loud.. just in my head...

How do you handle this, as I have also witnessed this as a passenger and the Q-tip was Ms. Daisy...I am telling you the floorboard of the car wasn't low enough and I was STILL VISIBLE!! ACK! It was also the last time Ms. Daisy drove me anywhere!

But I digress.

Today, I was on my Daisy/El Jeffe/gym run, when I looked in the rear view mirror.....

Small sporty little car, could hear the radio from behind me, BOOM BOOM BOOM BASS. I tell you the glass in my truck was rattling, and you know that kid...oops.... MAN...is totally deaf!

His finger is flying and his lips are flapping....what in the heck is going on

I am doing my normal 5 to 10 miles OVER the speed limit, I have my rock and roll radio station on ...I am cruisin', man!

The road went to two lanes, sporty flies around me, finger up, fist pumping, radio blasting and attitude going!

I realized that I am becoming a Q-tip!

OH NO! I AM TOO YOUNG FOR THIS!

Thank GOD for hair dye.....maybe I can hide the poofy gray "halo" for just a little bit longer!

TRUST ME...just don't look back! ;D
