Adventures in Driving

Last night I decided to hit HEB on the way back from Jakes, grab some groceries etc... there are 2 lanes coming under the overpass, one is left turn only, the other goes straight... people screw up all the time - and go straight from the left lane... normally this puts them into the turn lane coming the other way, but at 1030 at night, no one is around to really complain...
Unfortunately - i had a guy who decided he needed to go straight, but also to be in the correct lane when he did so... which meant i had to veer quickly, went off the road and into a curb - blew the drivers side airbag (why i dont know) and the right front tire. He wandered off. Sometimes I wonder...

Got it to Wallyworld - where I'll be taking the opportunity to replace the set of fairly balding tires with new ones - honestly i needed new tires anyway. The walk home from wallyworld was nice... got offered a ride, but it was only 3 or 4 miles and it's 70 degrees so why bother. Guess I know what i'm doing tomorrow.
