You read that in his voice, didn't you? Hahahahaha. Anyway, I realized this morning that my car has a cloaking device! I've joked before that I think I bought a transformer because my car has personality (not possessed just prissy) or possibly the chameleon circuit started working again and I bought "Sexy" somehow or maybe her sister, hmmmm. I mean she is the perfect shade of BLUE and does seem bigger on the inside. So who is to say she doesn't have a cloaking device or perception filter or something. Neato torpedo!!! Oh yikes, never saying that again.
I've mentioned in the past few months that people just don't see my car. I had a blue car before this one (actually IDENTICAL to this one) and before that a small silver car. So I am no stranger to small vehicles and have never had a major issue prior to now. But lately it is like other vehicles just don't see me. They pull out in front of me, change lanes when I am right there or almost run into the back of me like they don't realize a car is in front of them. And it is not all massive vehicles some are smaller than mine!
Today is when I realized it HAS to be because my car is cloaking itself (not because other drivers are idiots and clearly aren't paying attention). OMG so cool and I didn't have to pay extra!!! The problem with that is, it is absolutely RANDOM and it almost killed me this morning! I was going 55 mph (the actual speed limit) down a 4 lane highway with a turning lane in the middle. There was NO ONE ELSE AROUND. No one next to me, no one behind me. The sun was hidden by clouds so you can't blame glare. Suddenly this white mustang decided to cross said highway to get to the turning lane. Normally not an issue but a vehicle coming in the other direction got in the turning lane which caused the white mustang to just stop...blocking my lane and part of the other. *screeching tires* *down shifting* *horn blaring* *trying to maintain control of my car while braking and attempting to switch lanes*. I think you get the picture. The main problem was I was already too close when he went so switching lanes safely wasn't really an option. One I was going too fast so cutting the wheel hard enough to miss him at that speed I would have lost control. Two I was focused on braking and thinking "who the f**k stops in the middle of a highway". Three still braking and white knuckling the wheel, "why did you go?!?! There is literally no one behind me, I could have passed and none of this would be happening!!!!" This happened in seconds...it is amazing the thoughts you can have in such a short period of time.
All I can say is THANK GOD I have good brakes and was actually paying attention. I stopped centimeters from his car. He looked at me like he had no idea where I came from. It was like I "appeared out of no where". So there you go...cloaking device or perception filter...or I dunno pick your sci-fi term. The point is my car can vanish from sight and randomly reappear, that is the only logical explanation.
