A few things:

1. The man's eyes at the top of this article... will haunt me. His whole expression... just... aaaagh!

2. I bowled excellently yesterday. 202, 257, 202. The 257 was two strikes away from perfection (I spared those frames). It felt good to bowl that game, because I'd just come out of my first game striking out and I'd found my rhythm. I could literally release the ball, and always have it go to the same place, and always come back. One of the times I ended up sparing was because I made a slight adjustment, and the other time I didn't quite release right with my hands, but all those other times the motions were automagic.

3. I loathe when a person gets out of the car to hold a parking spot for someone who's circling around. In the case yesterday, it was in the parking garage where spaces are limited, and the way traffic runs, the car must go around. But I see a parking spot and three people blocking my way to it. It was irritating, and while I did luck out and find a better space (one that's not in the sun), they used their bodies to prevent my car from going where I wanted to go, leaving me powerless to have done anything except try to reason with them and block traffic while doing so. Grr. I can't run them over.

I've been trying to think of some sort of overarching rule they broke beyond this, besides that they thwarted me. I guess it's that they mixed pedestrianism and driving to their advantage, when it seems they should either drive... or be pedestrians, but they shouldn't be both at once. I don't know.
