I drive on the interstate.
Things are very loud.
It is like the car is a noise-absorbing box.
I cover my ears.
The car veers toward the guard rail.
I uncover my ears.
The car no longer veers toward the guard rail.
I do not feel comfortable in the right lane.
I move to the left lane.
The left lane is uncomfortable too.
I see a bright, colorful sign for a gas station.
This seems right.
The gas station sign should be here.
The gas station sign belongs.
I need to go to the gas station due to my desire to go there, so I cut off a pickup truck. The driver yells obscenities.
Maybe they were not obscenities. I could not really hear him. I am driving on the interstate. As I may or may not have mentioned. And things are loud.
As I may have mentioned.
I leave...
