This morning was good. Final out of the way. My Ethics final was considerably easier than I was anticipating. That was good stuff.
Then I had fun on the way in. I went to change lanes in to the #1 lane on 50. I was going about 70 and wanted to pass the car in front of me in the #2 lane. There was a Toyota Camry some distance back going maybe 5mph faster than myself. As soon as I turn on my blinker, I notice that he begins catching up to me pretty quickly. The guy saw me turn on my blinker and basically floored it to block me. Only when I turned on my blinker he was like 10 cars back. So I see him coming but I just mosey on in to the fast lane and hold my speed (I'll pass the car in the #2 lane later) and the Camry flies up on me and gets REALLY close. Like, I couldn't see his headlights through my back window. I see him throw his hands up like "WTF, mate?!?" at me. So I did the only logical thing - brake from 70 - 40 in a relatively short distance. Once he had learned his lesson I popped back up to 75 to get my passing done and moved over so I could exit the freeway. He stayed a fair way back from my car after the braking incident

I hate 50 now days. when i was in HS (1998 or so) once you passed Watt going east you never had to deal with traffic... now it's one of the worst spots in town.
