Dec. 7th, 2003
I managed to leave about half an hour after I planned to, played 3 games instead of 2, and was beating myself over that because I was sure I'd be late picking my mom up. on top of that, I managed to get two traffic lights that didn't change to red just before I reached them.
so, I'm tense, twitching, hoping like hell that they weren't kept waiting long -- and then, when we get there, we end up waiting about 15 minutes for them to show up.
and my grandparents are screaming at each other, so that really helped my state of mind. -_-
then, when we pull out, my mom starts explaining -- quietly -- why they were upset. so I'm concentrating on her, forget to turn my headlights on -- and run a red light right in front of a cop. apparently he didn't notice, but getting a shout right in my ear that I'm running a red light, when I'm halfway through the damned intersection, really didn't help things.
then, after I got on the freeway, some jackass starts tailgating me and leans on his horn. and I was already doing at least 90.
and on top of that, my brother kept reminding me that we needed to go to the store, even though I'd taken the route home that goes by the store, rather than the shorter one I take when I'm just going home.
I'm... a little tense right now. ¬_¬
