Busy busy busy

Sorry, haven't had much time for anything these days. Thought I would at least write something during my 3 minute lunch break.

So, ice... ice is bad, unless you're playing hockey that is.
Ice on the road... that's really bad. I've never seen the roads so completely covered with ice like this in my life. Main highways are good but anything else you might be better off just putting on the skates and leaving the car behind.

Since Cdubya is not from around here (California) she really didn't want to drive on ice (neither did I) so I've been driving her to work all week.

Yesterday morning I decided I should stick to the main roads and avoid the normal county highways I usually take. I head down Cottage Grove road to get on 51 North. Well, it's pretty freakin' icy as you would expect. We near the 51 entrance and I'm in the right lane, slowly easing up to a light that had turned red a few seconds ago. There's one car in front of me and he kind of skidded to a stop. So, being smart, I ease slowly up and stop behind him... reach for my coffee and BAM!

Stupid bitch behind me slammed right into me with her Trail Blazer. What the fuck you stupid whore, can you not see what is going on in front of you? Man, I was pissed. I jumped out of the car and damn near fell on my ass. After regaining my composure I went to check on the damage. Luckily her front bumper went under mine and just left me with a few scratches on the Murano. Her bumper was cracked and broken. I quickly got her insurance info since it was 3 below zero.

Fast forward 15 minutes and I'm driving down Main street in Sun Prairie. Asswipe in front of me is in a Mustang pretending that the roads are just fine and dandy. He attempts to take off from the stop light and just spins for a bit before swerving and starting out like his ass was on fire. He speeds up on one car in the right lane and quickly swerves to the left lane and continues his mission of destruction. I watch muttering how stupid people can be and as I catch up at the next light I notice that his bumper is under the rear bumper of the Expedition in front of me. What a total knob. I laughed at him as I slowly went by. Still in a hurry buddy? Jackass...

Rest of my day went great amazingly. I need to take it in for an estimate before I get hit again.

And if the snow and ice wasn't enough, we're going for 2 more records today. The record coldest high temp on this day is +4. We should be close. The record low for tonight is -14. We should also be close to that. Gotta love Wisconsin!
