Monday Recommends and Nail Art: Rain and Peonies

I nearly had to post this via the Ouija board. We were coming home from a book event in Lagrange, Sara at the wheel, when rain started coming down in buckets. Limited visibility. Wet road. And this LUNATIC cut between the car to the right and ever so slightly ahead of Sara and Sara. He practically went horizontal to the road to make the cut. There couldn’t have been more than inches to either side of him. Sara hit the brakes just hard enough to give him some of those inches but not hard enough to impede the way of the car behind her or to lose control of our car. It was masterful driving — on her part, not on the part of the lunatic, although they probably thought so.

I was like, “Jeesus! How did you avoid a crash?” She said, “My drivers’ ed class stressed Defensive Driving.”

So my recommendation for today is defensive driving.

Seriously.

My nails this week are AGAIN from the Korea collection of Maniology. Pink base coat, green leaves, pink back coat on some nails, red detail.

A WRITING PROMPT FROM ME TO YOU: Recklessness

About

I was born in Louisville, Kentucky, but now live in the woods in southern Indiana. Though I only write fiction, I love to read non-fiction. The more I learn about this world, the more fantastic I see it is.

    Sharp young reflexes. We had them once. I’m glad no one was hurt ‘cuz it’s never the lunitic that caused the problem.
