Watch my speed! (quote: charlie bucket's grandpa joe)

So, both of my two crappy cars are busted again (what's new). So my dad is loaning me his gracefully aging celica with some crazy turbo engine that makes it (at least back in its day) mostly able to go quite fast and accelerate well (at least better than my girl "lil' smoky" as I like to call her).

Problem is, there is no speedometer. As i have finally gone 2 years without a speeding ticket (i used to collect them), I have a great need, for insurance purposes, to maintain and surpass this record. But in a fast car without a speedometer, I am counting down the days on my left hand until I'm sure Ill have a ticket.

It is sort of freeing, really. Just drive however fast or slow that you please. But, it also increase road rage (I didn't know that was possible with the state of my current explosive disorder). I find myself tailgating and getting really angry with people in the fast lane when they're not going the speed I think we should be going. But I have realized that it is quite possible that I could be desiring to go 90 or so.

But really, regardless, get out of the freaking fast lane. In Oregon they follow the law! It is a law you know. If you're going ridiculously slow, move to the right. I don't think they have ever heard of that here. If I can't shift out of third gear, you should be getting out of my way. And people have never heard of merging, either, and, and...

This road rage moment has been brought to you by too much cheesecake from the cheesecake factory at too late of an hour.
