Okay, so I get that great care should be taken when driving a 4000 pound vehicle where pedestrians are milling around - like the Walmart parking lot.  But seriously.  Get the f##k out of the way.

     I mean is it just me or has the flow of traffic in parking lots taken a turn for the worse?   When 7 cars are stopped for three, very slow, fat, smart-assy pedestrians who would actually be going backwards if they walked any slower, I cannot be the only driver thinking, eff it, hit them.  Or at least honk like hell.

     Courtesy, safety, caution.. I get it.  It just doesn't make sense for 7 cars to stop for 1.5 minutes to wait for these inconsiderate pukes to lolly-gag their asses across the driveway when it would take only 1/2 a  minute for all 7 cars to get past the cross-walk, making it perfectly safe and convenient for the inconsiderate bastards to pedest at their leisure.

Mom is too Cool

My mom now has a blog.  Nevapaints.  It will no doubt be hugely successful and well-read. She is funnier and a much better writer than me.

Working From Home

I wake up most days with the best intentions.  As I consider my options for getting up I fully intend to stretch first thing, then eat some oatmeal.  After that I will head downstairs, jump on the treadmill for 20 minutes and while I'm there, grab the vacuum and do Cob Web Duty which has fallen into my to-do column in recent years.  It used to be in my husband's column but not anymore.  I can throw in some laundry while I am there and then head upstairs to plan two more healthy meals for the day.  After a shower and all the attending moisturizing, hair and make-up, brush, floss and water-pic, I will race up the steps to my office, put on some great tunes and get a strong start on a good,  busy, productive day.
Once every few months, this scenario actually unfolds.  Most days I just get up and light a cigarette, get some good strong coffee with half-n-half, check my Facebook and get lost in some internet fascination.   By 11 AM I have usually squeezed in a tooth brushing, face washing and hell, I showered last night so how bad can I be? Chicken strips and ranch dressing and up to work I go.

I thought I knew something..

..But I Don't

More and more often as I get older, I find that some of the perceptions I have had, some my entire life, are not only wrong, they are baseless.

A recent trip to Los Angeles continues to remind me that I have based too many opinions about people, ideas and certainly places on either misinformation or misunderstood information.
