I’m taking a moment to defend myself against the accusations from Rob about harassing him about his driving. Rob is a good driver and he is correct in saying he’s never gotten into an accident BUT he does this little things to annoy me when he drives.
• He’s nosy. He wants to look at EVERY car that we pass or passes us. I’m not talking a quick glance either; he will turn his head just to see the what the driver looks like and what they were doing. It’s great when the driver is unattractive or doing something like picking their nose, then I get an update on that.
• He loves me too much. His main objective in life is to annoy me as much as possible. He likes to stare at me knowing I’m going to yell at him. His response is usually, “but you are just so beautiful”; I call “bullsh!t. Keep your eyes on the road and admire me later.
• He’s obsessed with his Blackberry. I admit I am too but I don’t usually drive so I can spend a car ride checking email, twitter or playing a game. Unless the phone is ringing there is NO reason Rob should be checking his Blackberry every 5 minutes. Wait, he not only checks it he insists on reading whatever communication has come through.
So there. I’m not the bad guy Rob made me out to be, my complaints are justified, he’s a distracted driver not a bad driver.
