Seriously my commute home was effed . First there was this guy, who doesn’t seem to understand that merging is easier if you’re moving.... 

Came to a complete stop until someone finally let him in.

Then this fucking shit happened. Group of pedestrians about became hamburger. Not sure why you’d dive out in front of a Land Rover going 70 MPH but... here we are. Once again the dashcam doesn’t really convey how close it was. Also I suggest muting the video. I had a crap ton of wine in the car and... well you can tell when I hit the brakes!

I hate people.

Not sure why you’d dive out in front of a Land Rover

because there’s a 60% chance it will break before it gets to you.

The fact that they’re from New Jersey makes it even more incomprehensible, since we don’t even need there to be an safe  opening on the highway to merge.

I think people just have no realization just how fast cars are coming on a road like that. Our only frame of reference is crossing a street that’s maybe 35 at best. I crossed a freeway once after a blown tire, and it was terrifying.

I am happy to say all 16 bottles made it home safe.

What sort of wine?

All this mention of wine has me tempted to open a bottle of macon- villages I have in my bedroom fridge.

Brunch of cheap crap.  Menage a trois and Costco brand sauvignon blanc.  Big progressive dinner on Saturday so... Here we are.

Cheap can be good.

If wine is too bad, mix them in a jug and do large tumbler shots with it.

((we did it once at a christmas party at a hotel, the red and white wine taste very similar, so we mixed it in a water jug and called it toilet rose. We drank hard and danced hard that we sobered up. Well some of us did. The boss was nine sheets to the wind))
