Forgot to mention this

This past weekend on my drive to Houston I realized I'm still not used to the steering wheel configuration on my current car, even though I've been driving the thing for a year now

I was heading south on I-45, somewhere before Madisonville, when a woman in a white SUV failed to check her blind spot before merging into the left lane. I was there, going faster than her and the car in front of her, getting ready to pass them.

As she pulls into my lane, missing me only because I stomped on the brake, I furiously ... set my cruise control at her. *sigh*

time for a stupid comment .... New car? What happened with the little Saturn? Did I miss something?

Every time something went wrong it cost $500, so I figured that if I was going to be spending the money I could have it go to car payments instead of repair bills. :)

* It's a Saturn as well - a 2005 Saturn Ion 3, bought the last week of December 2004.
