The Editorial
Note to self: Never allow myself to be on a road trip with an elderly man-child with road rage. I should never have agreed to ride along with my parents on their quest to find the correct doctor's office in the city that my mother will visit at the end of October. I have a driving phobia; I don't have a license; I don't drive for many reasons, too long to list here, though high anxiety has always been the #1. Not to mention, nobody taught me to drive in the first place. Yeah, great parenting on my parents' part. Plus, there were no driver's ed classes in my area; just another stupid decision made by the public school system. If I could drive, I would take my mother to her appointment myself. I would ask a family member to help, but she doesn't want anybody to know she's sick. Direct transportation is an option, but I question my father's failing eyesight. He needs cataract surgery-maybe this year. But his anger...that's the real issue. It seems to get worse as he gets older. If he would just keep his mouth shut and listen—he has selective hearing and won't take directions. Like I said, an elderly man-child.

Some Final Thoughts
I need a vacation from insanity and my life. I would go to the Heartland Fall Forum, but it's in Indianapolis, and I can't afford a plane ticket.
