I think about this all the time. I often want to get out of the car to explain to/scream at the person behind me. And also to punch. Also, I sometimes want to kick people who almost hit me in the crosswalk.
I have had this VERY experience with cars and have had the very female wish to get out and explain, with probably curse words, that I'm waiting for a baby stroller to get safely to the side.
Also, my husband also tears apart the trees at our house. He actually killed our most beautifully flowering locust in his 'tampering.'
I laughed out loud at the wisteria part (that's not a spoiler, is it?). Fantastic column.

Sometime you'll have to hear Tom imitating his parents' ongoing argument over the garden. She pampered vines and bushes; he brought on the chain saw.
ReplyDeleteI have never been tempted to get out of my car and assault anyone, because I'm a coward.
