Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk to you again.
This has been a weird-ass day and it isn't even NOON. I started the morning at Target, buying a birthday card for Ford's father. Ho-hum business as usual, but I did make a mental note of how Target seems so crappy to me these days. Just a cavernous wasteland of useless shit (and greeting cards). I used to love that ( Read more... )

"So yeah, I am old, and getting senile, and am a bitch, and reckless, and should probably just never leave the house."
Me, too! Yesterday as I was about to turn onto the road my job is on, this guy in a blue car was about to pull out onto the road I was turning from, but he'd moved too far ahead and was already preparing to turn left onto Whatever Rd. He was in the way of my turning onto Sharpe Road, so as I swung WAY out to make my turn while not hitting his vehicle, I shouted through my open window, "Why don't you get the fuck out of the way, asshole?!?" His window was down too, and that made him mad at 9am, so he got out of his car and shouted, "Fuck you, bitch!!!" while I watched his dumb boomer ass in my rear-view mirror and flipped him off. I hope I ruined his day.
And sometimes I completely forget when it is and when I am in it.

So often, I would LIKE to forget when it is and where I am in it. As well as who and why I am in it. Sigh. And then it happens like today and I am like WTF. There is no pleasing me.
It is SO SATISFYING to be mean from a car. I am gonna do more of it.

For a while I was keeping track of how many times I flipped off other drivers each day. I average about three.
I think that recent experience was the only time I've been flipped off lately. Since that old fucker was the one driving like an asshole, I found his anger to be somewhat delightful. If I ruined his day, I'd like him to know that I'm still gloating two days later.

Whoever's phone it is, they're lucky it was you that picked it up! Back when I was young and very poor I had just gotten a gorgeous new candy apple red bar phone and I set it down at the Forest Hill Lowe's and never saw it agan. Grrrr.

Hopefully that evil phone thief ended up with a terrible case of overwhelming anxiety. i am sorry that happened :(
In the early days of phones, pure theft had to have been a motive :( Nowadays, I think it's almost second nature to absentmindedly grab a phone that's sitting next to you on a counter... I wasn't even thinking about it, I guess I just thought it was mine. I was so utterly confused when it started vibrating and I looked at it and it was clearly not mine, because I'd forgotten about slipping it in my pocket. Very jarring.
