Jailed Cows
Keosauqua, Iowa -- 1998
From 'The Des Moines Register' March 16,1998 front page article. Heifers caught jaywalking face jail time. It seems cows have been wandering onto the highways creating a traffic hazard and local officials needed to take drastic action. The offending cows get put away at a cost of 25 dollars per day for stall and hay.
heeheehee
I love it.
But anyway, the drive this morning was...okay. I got out of the house about ten minutes later than normal because my shower was just so warm and wonderful that I had to bask in it for a little longer. Plus I slept in for five minutes...but I've been doing that lately. As it gets colder, it's hard to drag my ass out of bed. Not to mention that the rents keep the windows open in the guest room so I basically freeze my buns off on the way to the bathroom every morning and then I turn into an icicle when I get out of the shower and run back to my room. I think they're trying to kill be because on top of that there's a big ol' tote in my way, and I don't bother to turn on the light in the guest room because I'm only walking through it to get to the bathroom...so I pretty much have a huge bruise on my shin...after cursing the damn tote in my path and bouncing up and down. grr.
Speaking of driving...just to illustrate for you, on my way home on the dreaded 76, I encountered a driver about five miles from my turn that was going 45...on a 65. AAAAHHHHHHHHGGGGHHH I almost went crazy. I am so tempted sometimes to lean on the horn and just sit there until they get out of my way. This morning too, I was behind someone getting onto the 37(or 39 I'm not sure) that just sat there at the intersection. The people passing by were in the left lane, but the right was open and they were just sitting there until both lanes were cleared. ohhhhhhhmyyyyyygrrraaavy. I just can't stand Oklahoma drivers. it's like "oh sorry...I'm used to a tractor" grrrr.
Anyway that's my driving shpeel for the morning. I do a lot of it lately. And I hate morning radio. They just talk to hear themselves talk. It's never about anything important, and I just want to listen to damn music SO GET OFF THE MIC.
Okay aaaaanywho, I'm not really that angry all the time. People just frustrate me.
And my Minuet in F Major sucks. Sucks ass. Yeah.
But today should be easy. Tuesdays are the best. I don't have any classes until after chapel, and that's Chorale, and then Piano after a break in which I actually get to eat lunch. Directly after Piano I have Bible, and then I'm done, so three classes is good :)
Rochelle tried to get me to dance last night...yeah not happening. I mean if it were anything other than hip hop...heehee I don't know how good I am at it, but it's just awkward when she's dancing without her shirt on and I'm like...ummmm...no. Yeah so I didn't dance, but I'm sure she'll get me to sometime.
And I didn't get any homework done yesterday, but that's okay b/c I have some extra time today. :-D I'm just jazzed about my major. I freaking love it.
Okay so I'll leave you now...and to bring you back to my high school days and my ex's college days..."I'll leave you to ponder your gruesome death" heehee!!
