HA!!! Encouraging cabbies to drag race, that's amazing!!! I love it. I would be scared, though. They drag race enough as it is for no reason.
You are right about whatever is going on. Have to remember being yourself and stepping away. I have to actually STOP and choose a reaction. It's hard to describe. I am used to (thanks to my mom) resonding to crisis with screaming and chaos, now I think and just sit down and go from there. Seriously.
Thank you for saying I wrote a "killer entry"!!! I'm so glad you liked it. I love such feedback, gives me a thrill.
How it the cabbies of America are normally recent immigrants and they can do this yet I can't even figure out how to take a bus from South to West Philly?
