Kansas City drivers

I'm filing this under "religion" because I was praying for my life a couple of times today. 

I went into work late (still recouping the energy bit from surgery), and my first stop on the way was Walgreen's to pick up a prescription.  This Walgreen's is at a busy intersection, and I usually take a left hand turn lane that gets a green arrow signal just to be safe.  Mine was the first vehicle in line, and as I'm turning into the cross street, some person in a large vechicle makes a right turn into that lane, not even looking for oncoming traffic from the light.  It was a close one, and I was focusing so hard on avoiding her and not getting rear-ended that I missed the opportunity to HONK loudly.  How in the world this person could miss a 1/2 ton Ford F-150 truck (cream and light blue) coming towards her is beyond me.

Then after picking up the prescription, I was turning into the street and some yahoo turned into the lane from across the street and just missed me.

My guardian angel probably has a few more white hairs, but thanks for watching out for me!  Please try to give me a little more warning if you can, though.

Maybe it's that full moon out there, in full bloom....

Sorry you couldn't honk...the horn is an underused piece of equipment as far as I'm concerned. Of course if you're driving something like my wife's tracker then honking the little clown-car horn that it has doesn't quite do an adequate job of reflecting the sentiments that make you want to honk the horn in the first place. Glad you're okay! There are crazy drivers everywhere...some even try to eat breakfast as they're on their way to work. :)

I too am glad that you are well, Ms LG.

Carl - Hey--don't make fun of my car or my little mishap either...

I'm not the only one making fun...you need to read LG's response to your comment about Squiggles outfit on Dancing Tarts.
