I'm driving down the freeway this morning to drop off some homework Mermaid forgot to put in her backpack. There's a woman with dark hair driving a white Volvo ahead of me in the middle lane. There are five lanes, I think, including the exit lanes on this freeway. There's a stretch of road in the lane on the lane to my right. Yes, I KNOW that passing on the right is not kosher, but people here do it all the time, and frankly, when the folks in the left lane (the "faster lane") aren't going very fast either, well...you do what you can.

So I signaled and went into the lane to the right of Volvo woman. AS SOON AS I catch up to her and start to pass her in order to get in front of her, she SPEEDS UP so that I can't get in front of her. It wasn't a one-time thing, either. I did it again, and SHE did it again. THREE TIMES, this bitch pulled ahead every time my car approached hers, even when I wasn't trying to pass her. And it wasn't just me, either. I noticed she did it some other poor sod trying to get past her, too, not just me.

I hate assholes like that on the road. Fortunately I don't run across this type of asshat that often, but when I do, I'd like to punch them out.
Bimey, I've got to make dinner. It's my special, ultra-simple lasagna, gleaned from two different recipes. Brown and season the meat (if that's what you're using). Add in onions, if you want. (I won't be because Tall Boy asked this time if I could leave it out). When the pound of meat cools enough, mix it with garlic and 2 cups of Ricotta cheese. That's right. Add some parmesan cheese to the mixture if you want, or layer it on as you make the lasagna. Get out your dry cook-as-you-cook-the-lasagna noodles and one to two bottles of spagetti sauce. I usually choose extra garlicy sauces. Layer as much as you want, making sure to leave enough sauce for the top layer.  Cover the square pan (I use a glassware thing) with foil to the lasagna doesn't dry out. Bake it for about half an hour with the foil on. Remove the foil, add some cheese to the top, and bake without the foil for about 10-15 minutes so that it's nice and brown on top. Let it sit for five minutes or so.
 
And OMG, my dog is leaking gas and I'm going to have to leave the den before I gakk out and die from the smell and lack of oxygen. I'm afraid to light a match in here. I'm afraid the house would go up in flames.
