How the hell did it get here so quickly? I find myself thoroughly unprepared. Today’s forecast calls for sunshine and shopping. With luck I’ll find gifts for my parents. Then sometime after Christmas I’ll finally buy Christmas presents for my friends that I won’t see until New Years.
Anyway, yesterday’s trip home was pretty uneventful. I realized that I hate Starbucks because of its other customers. I was stuck in a 10 minute line that had 5 people in it so that I could get a cup of, as Denis Leary says, “coffee flavored coffee.” Aside from some classically bad drivers, everything went well.
One pet peeve, often perpetrated by other drivers is the “speed-up slow-down but always try to match.” When they see me close in within 20 yards, they speed up…. until we reach additional traffic which means that I can’t pass. Then they slow down to the speed limit or slower. Fortunately most members of society understand this concept.
Hopefully in the next few days I’ll be able to post some more petty, nonsensical rants. Until then, always remember to finish your
Ovaltine!
A crummy commercial? Son of a bitch!
