I was driving downtown today when I realized my frustration was reaching boiling point. It's not hard to get me irritated, but today's traffic had me especially frustrated. Common practice for me is to blast the radio and sing my guts out, but today I decided on contemplation. I wondered why the idiot in front of me kept slamming on his breaks when he was 4 car lengths from the car in front of him. Then I wondered if the break slamming was a compulsive thing. Then I wondered if bi-polar disorder included compulsive behavior, and ultimately decided that doctors are not diagnosing enough people with bi-polar disorder and consequently not prescribing enough medication to these jerks who compulsively drive.
I arrived at home, less irritated, and safely.

Wow! Usually contemplation makes me hate them more! I come to the conclusion that they are all idiots and never went to driving school, and are purposely out to annoy the world with their driving expressionism. (How else can you say it? It's definitely not "skills")
Heheh! But hey, I haven't even thought about traffic since I've been here in Canada!!!!!!!! (oh except for yesterday when I had just pulled out of Safeway, the light was red and I saw a lady jump out of her car and go to the car behind her and just scream her head off, wave her fists, and make a huge scene. There were 2 teenage girls in the other car and they were just giggling. I don't know what happened, but it sure looked interesting!)
I think YOU are bi-polar!! have you been taking your meds beth???
