Why I Changed My Blog Title

Really, it was because I didn't like the first one. When I created my blog, I had a very inspiration-less moment and yet had to choose something. Hope you like this one better, and if you have any great suggestions...I'm all ears!

Why I Hate Minivans

Okay, so I don't hate minivans, just the women that drive them.

Yesterday morning I was driving from my home to downtown. The first minivan I encountered was a woman driver who tailgated me so close that I couldn't see the majority of her hood in my rear view mirror. We were going through a playground zone! Since it was a minivan, the chances of that woman having children are pretty high in my estimation, and she still tailgated me. Whose children would she like me to run over? Probably not hers, but it seems she has no problem speeding through when it's anyone else's kids.

Second: not even five minutes later I was on the commuter road into Edmonton, where the speed limit is 70 and people are jam packed for 3 lanes. Another woman in a minivan decided to go at least 10 UNDER the speed limit here, slowing down the entire lane.

I must ask...what is it with women in minivans? Is it like the female equivalent of old men in trucks? They are higher than everyone else on the road, so they'll do what they like? Maybe this is a sexist, chauvanistic rant, but I am not proud of this. But lately, every time someone cuts me off, tailgates, or drives like they can't see, I look over and it's a minivan with a woman driver.

Lord help me if I ever get a minivan...I'll probably leave my driving brain at home too.
