ROAD RAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!

lady with road rage This driving to college thing every day is seriously damaging my health!!! Im not saying Im the best driver out there..because Im not, the whole parellel parking really aint my strong point yet!!! But take for example this morning, heading up the road, making good progress, singing away, looking forward to ONLINE PR(!!) first thing... got as far as Castleblayney thinking thinking ill even have time to fit in a wee snooze. WRONG!!!!!! On the Dundalk Rd, get behind THEEEE slowest driver. a lorry wit a big digger n jcb on d back AND a van manages to pull put infront of her!!!! at this stage the dude in front of me was really losing it and began to bash his steering wheel..maybe a slight over reaction but who am i to judge! so hoped on to the M1 outside Dundalk thinking ill make up for lost time.. got into the fast lane overtaking whatcould have been a snail n got stuck behind a massive merc!! they decided to over take yet no go any faster than the car on the inside lane.. sense???..i think not!!first of all overtake n move back in quickly.. secondly, why have such a big powerful car & not use it!!so by the time i pulled into the car park here in DKIT i had nearly popped a vein.. i really tink there shud b another road made that goes all the way around the country for all the people who decide to go out n take a wee 'sunday spin' at all times of the week!!!

Monday Blues!!!!!

Monday mornings are already bad enough.. Got up early to beat the road works that were meant to be going on..(signs were up all over the place on friday)... THERE WERE NO ROAD WORKS!!!!!!!!! bad times.. for once there was no problem getting parked. Then i met Karen. Karen on a Monday morning is actually worse than Karen not getting parked, Karen after getting clamped, or Karen just on a bad day!!! Some fool told me we'd won the lotto on Saturday..we actually only won 20euro!! depression.. Then over breakfast we all saw a side to Grace that no one ever wants to see or hear about again.. she just proves, you can dress them up but take them no where. Like out for dinner with your family for your birthday..
