Latest pet peeve

Guess what? I've found something else to be annoyed about!

This has happened to me a few times now. I'll be standing at an intersection, waiting for the light to change so I can cross the street. As I'm waiting, somebody who has just arrived at the crosswalk ditches in front of me, waits for the light to change, and then crosses the street. I always think to myself, "dick!" and try to catch up to him so that I can get back in the front where I rightfully belong.

It seems to me that if a bunch of people are waiting at a crosswalk, you do not ditch the front of the line and go around everyone who is waiting. I think it's extremely rude. Does this happen to anyone else? Or is this much ado about nothing?

I've also noticed that I seem to walk a lot slower than other people. I don't know if it's because I'm always lugging 40 pounds of books, or if it's a product of one of those city-life country-life differences. You know, people in cities are much more go-go, while people from less urbanized areas, like myself, are more laid back. I mean, whenever I'm back in Lancaster I'm always the fastest person at the mall, but then at the mall I am never laden like an ox with books on criminal law.
