Random rambles
I really don’t have much to write about….I just haven’t written in a while, and I’m very bored tonight. I should probably go to bed, but I don’t want to. Andy Griffith is on, and I still need to run the vaccum tonight. I don’t feel like running the vaccum yet, so I’ll just waste some time.
I think I’ll just write about what’s on my mind today.
Ramble #1
It’s officially Winter here in Ohio. It’s buttcheek cold outside. This morning it felt so cold going out to my car that it hurt to breathe. It’s so cold, that there is ice on some of the roads. What is it about ice on the roads that makes people drive like MORONS? I have common sense, so I slow down. But this idiot this morning came flying around me because me going 55 (Which is the SPEED LIMIT on this particular road by the way) was just TOO SLOW. And since it’s MY FAULT that he/she left their house too late this morning, and that 3 seconds earlier that they’re going to make it to work is life or death. Don’t people realize that it takes MILES of driving at a faster speed before it even really makes a difference? I think it’s funny when I pull right up behind them at a stop light. And it’s even more funny when I pass them and pull into the parking lot of my job.
I do have a bit of driving paranoia ever since I had my car accident and broke my leg. Even driving in the rain makes me a nervous wreck. But I think of it as a positive that I have the common sense to slow down. I’d rather be late to work then not show up at all because I went into a ditch, or caused a serious accident. But that’s just me.
Thought 2
When I’m at work selling a vacation to someone why is that that when I tell someone to have a safe trip, they almost always say, “You too!” I’m not going!
Thought 3
Why do people think it’s OK to ditch in line? This has happened to me twice in the last few days.
Chris and I had “date night” Friday night, and decided to stay downtown in a hotel just for the heck of it. SO I’m standing in line waiting to check in, and some members of a group that were staying there were ahead of me. Then some more of that group came in…They all just crowded in front of me. I tried to be nice about it, but I know they knew I was very irritated. Especially when I turned to Chris and said loudly, “I WONDER WHERE THE LINE BEGINS? I COULD HAVE SWORN I WAS STANDING IN LINE.” Luckily, the lady behind the counter had seen me and asked me to come up to get checked in.
Then this evening at the grocery store I was standing waiting to get some turkey from the deli. And this lady came up in a huge rush for her salami. She asked for it as I was giving my order to the guy behind the counter. So me, being the smarty that I am, ordered some very thinly sliced swiss cheese…A whole pound, just to piss her off.
I’m in no mood for peoples crap this week. I’m on week 2 of my training class which has me just about drained for energy. I’m doing VERY well….Better than I thought anyway…My exam scores are very high which is good. I’ll get more comfortable with it as we get further into it. And I’ll be especially glad when I actually get to work.
Well, I’ll quit it for now…More to come soon. Feel free to ramble with me so I don’t feel like a jerk….lol
