HellOOOOOO! March? Jody here. Have you been playing with the thermostat? CUT IT OUT.
In other news, I got stuck behind two different school busses on the way to work today. This NEVER happens to me, even though I have to drive through 3 (!) elementary school zones every morning. That’s right, three chances to drive 20mph per day. And don’t you dare think about going faster than that in Townsend, baby, cause the police station is in the middle of the 20mph zone and if you don’t think they are out there, you’re insane.
Okay, so I got stuck behind busses, which I could deal with. What floored me is that both of them ended up turning off the road, and neither used turn signals. Shouldn’t the drivers of school busses be extra careful? The Lunenburg school bus took a left-hand turn without signaling, and the Townsend school bus took a right. No blinkers. If they had both been from the same school district I would have picked up the phone right then and there, but something about it being one of each made me not as phone-happy. Plus I didn’t note the bus numbers.
Anyway, bus drivers of the world – you are carrying our children in your big yellow death machines. Do me a favor and follow ALL the laws, not just the ones you find convenient.
Bus drivers, truck drivers … the only rule is that their vehicles are bigger than ours.
I got busted in Townsend — three days before my wedding. Right on 13 near the apartment buildings, where it meets up with 119. We wound up going to court and getting the ticket thrown out.
I grew up where there were no school buses, so this stopping every 10 feet thing (esp on 117 in the morning) gets on my damn nerves. Kids! 😉
