tag team

ok, so now i have something to bitch about. this happened yesterday on the way home.

-on ramp: 2-lanes that bottle neck into one before entering the freeway. entering the freeway, this lane becomes a new lane for a bout 500 feet, then becomes an exit. so in these 500 feet, you have to merge into the next lane if you want to continue on the freeway. all uphill.

-signal before the on ramp: silver mercedes to my right, hands gripping the wheel like her only possesion, perfectly positioned at 10 and 2. gold lexus in front of me. light turns green, ok let's go. this is now an on ramp once we pass the intersection, we're toping about 30mph at this point. needless to say i'm a little close to the lexus as she is not accelerating enough for the on ramp, uphill. here we are at the bottle neck, still 30mph, but i'm boxed in, the same position we were at waiting for the light to turn green. silver now decides that she wants to be in front of me, and she won't budge until she is.

-wtf?

-so now i'm behind them both, they both decide to continue on the freeway, they both are now flooring it like drag racers, leaving my silly 4-cyl pickup in the dusty mud. now i'm pissed. now you are in a hurry? why NOW? 

-so i push my poor little truck hard up this hill, pass the silver stabbing a dirty look at her, ignoring me as usual. coming to the gold lexus about to pass in the other lane, and what happens? you TRY AND BLOCK ME?!?!

-?!?!?!?!!!! !!!!!

-racing downhill now, attempting to get in front of this ____, dodging slower cars here and there. calm down a tiny bit to re gather my bearings, meanwhile goldy seemed to have forgotten that she just made a sleeping bull very angry. i finally reach her, pass her to find her left arm to her ear holding some sort of, cellphone?, cut the fuckin bitch off, see her flail into the opposite lane and continue to block the bitch from trying to get in front of me. lucky there was no traffic in the other lane, or was it?

-this one makes me sound like an asshole. oh well, i probably am. just wish people would pay a little more attention. just a little.
