Road rage at it's best

So I just got home for Labor Day weekend. Since my sister goes to Ball State too, we figured we would ride back home together to save on gas. Well she didn't get out of class until 3 so I had to wait around for 5 hours. Anyways we're supposed to go camping this weekend with the whole family. I was excited about going until I had to sit in 45 MINUTES OF TRAFFIC!! So I have enough road rage as it is, not to mention impatience. ALL THE IDIOTS!!! Traffic was bumper to bumper and I was in the fast lane thinking it would be the fastest lane (hence the name "fast" lane). Yeah it was fastest lane up until this "older" guy cuts in front of me..I guess he wanted to go faster than the other lanes too, at least that's what I thought. No no, he didn't want to go fast AT ALL! He was going slower than the other two lanes that weren't up to speed with the fast lane. I was livid!! Some words probably came out of my mouth that my grandma might not be so proud of. So there was this huge gap in the fast lane just calling my name. I so badly wanted to pass him on the left side, but let's not be silly, my road rage isn't that bad. At this point, the other two lanes were going faster than him so I got over and finally passed him. I was completely relieved. I actually got to speed up to 20 mph for .87 seconds. Then I was back to bumper to bumper traffic. So what normally would take me an hour-ish to get home, took me about an hour and a half.

My family was waiting on us to get home. They were all packed up and ready to leave when we finally got there. I was NOT in any mood to jump back in a car again. I told them I would drive separately when I cooled off.

Anyways just a note to self: NEVER DRIVE HOME ON FRIDAY DURING RUSH HOUR!!
