So I went to work today, unlike yesterday when the roads were perfectly clear.
I leave my apartment (had lunch here) and it's snowing ever so lightly, but just heavy enough to stick and make driving a fucking goddamn pain in the ass.
I go downtown and fix a 'no phone system' problem by resetting the entire damn thing. Then I go back up to the job I did in the morning.
It happens to be a real estate/mortgage company. I finish up the work and he starts talking about owning a home, of course i'm interested so I give him all my info, where i'd like to buy, etc.
Here's where the fucking rant starts.
I'm coming down Coldwater road. STATE HIGHWAY... it's slick as hell. I need to make a left onto Washington center road, it's a main arterial through Ft wayne.
So I'm sitting in the turn lane on the right side. My light goes, I start going.
I get 3/4 way through my turn when I suddenly have no control. I crank the wheel and tap the gas to try to dig and get traction.
Nothing... at all...
My impression of myself:
SHIT!!!
SHIT!!!
SHIT!!!
and then all I hear is this:
BAM!!!!!!!!!
I bounce off the fucking curb and it pushes me over into the passing lane on Wash. Ctr, JUST AS the car beside me gets around. I came within a few feet of this poor guy just trying to make a turn on the inside. I crank the wheel to the right, regain traction into the SEMI plowed road and continue down. Finally it clears enough so that I'm not driving down a road of snow.
I call the office and ask. Can I just go home? I'm not driving back to new haven in this shit. The ok is given so I drive home with fucking assholes cutting me off and tailgating me. You have no idea how much I wish you could whip out a .357 and just start firing at these stupid fucking fucks.
To top it off Sharon gets allll super excited when this white shit is falling and I hate every single last little white drop of this frozen water bullshit that just needs to GO AWAY.
You have no idea how much I want to wipe that smile off her face when it's snowing. It's not fun, it's dangerous and I hate it.
