Stoplights

Drove into work today. Downtown.

I've gotten pretty used to driving again since working on a project that keeps me out of the office much of the time. And that will continue now that I'm changing office buildings and moving to a new part of town. I don't mind the driving much, especially to the new space because I can take one-way city streets instead of the freeway.

However, this morning entailed merging onto the freeway to drive into Downtown.

Some jerk cut me off in his rush to the left lane.

He was probably on his cell phone. And setting his GPS system. And shaving. And smoking. And watching TV. And making an iced mocha.

But I was the one smiling when I hit the first stoplight at 10th Street. He was waiting for green.

Stoplights. The great equalizer.
