Is it bad that I am so amused by your notes ? I swear I am not laughing at your hardships... just your angsty, heartfelt, hilarious prose.

I especially understand the "PUTTERING AROUND BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT LANE".... dear gods, when I think of some convention road trips...

It's okay, I was trying to be funny instead of whiny. It's either laugh or commit an act of violence.

Well it was funny AND still was able to present the pain you were going through. Well done!

You do realize that Andy Capp's Cheese Fries are fried corn starch coated in mutant chemicals, right?

Here, this might amuse you, and it mentions Andy Capp, and dirty weather:

*covers mouth at work from gaffawing at the front desk* Thank you. I share your pain. I hug your neck. I hope your week is MUCH better than the weekend. Thank you for not committing any random acts of violence - we like you on THIS side of the cage.

you're not alone in your Andy Capp love, but you might be in smallish company.

the vending machine lady realized a guy at work here had left when no one bought the Andy Capp Hot Fries. she'd only stocked them for him apparently. i was in there one day while she was refilling the vending machine. "Where's Joe?" she asked. "he quit. ... why?" "oh. cuz these Andy Capp fries have been in here a long time. i wondered where Joe had gone."

as to the rest of it, i hope you finally have better weather. enough sux0rs!!!!

Huh. I used to be the guy who bought the hot fries at the vending machine in school. I wonder if some incoming 1L replaced me. Also where I overheard one of the most amusing conversations I've ever heard:

Friend 1: "Ethan! Want to go ice fishing this weekend?"
Friend 2 (aka "Ethan"). "Sorry dude -- can't. Going dogsledding"
