No, and I won't let you take cuts at the grocery store, either

If people would, when they see the blinking hazard sign which says "LEFT LANE CLOSED AHEAD" get into the right lane immediately, instead of RACING to where they will be forced into the right turn lane, ALL of us would get there a lot faster. Instead, we're bottle-necked because these MORONS just HAVE to race past the line and squeeze in ahead of

ugh I hate when people do that and i usually won't let them in. bite me moron.

that is a nice apt complex

he is a cute kitty

If I've seen them pull a bonehead maneuver I won't let them in (some guy honked and shouted at me once, but I hate to break it to him -- I'm driving a 22-year-old 1500 Suburban with bad paint and I don't CARE if you hit me, jerk, I WILL win.

I wish they gave tours to people who just want to see the inside of the building, who aren't prospective buyers...

[cornerofmadness]

snort, good point

i hear you. I've considered making a chiro apt I don't want just to see the inside of that house

There's another great condo/office building across the street from this one, I have to get a shot of - it's designed like a metal version of a Japanese house (looks like paper sliding doors all over, but is glass and steel) with a full-scale green roof (you can see the trees up there!) -- I'd LOVE to see the inside.

Yay, dancing grackle! We got to watch one bathing earlier today in front of Mom's house.

I love to watch them strut! (They always look very self-important!)

[evil_little_dog]

They are very self-important birds. And I love their icy eyes.

[wildrider]

I've seen flocks of them on the grass all with their beaks stuck up in the air like they're watching something. A parliament of grackles!

I always say hell is other drivers, and I am not wrong. That building is cool. At first glance I thought it wasn't finished yet, which is a cool effect.

[wildrider]

It's very awesome looking--the balconies fascinate me, since they don't appear to have any support at all--they're just triangles stuck out at odd angles, and I'm guessing that oval up top is where the pool is, but I'm not sure (you can kind of see from below, there's something that looks vaguely like cabanas; there is at least a garden up there!).

Driving in construction = rage. I send sympathies.

But hurrah for working out and weight loss! [applauds]

[wildrider]

Now if I can just keep it up! :-)

Happy weekend!

When my ex lived in Tempe (going to ASU) it seemed like University near campus was never NOT under ridiculous amounts of construction. They're widening the central circular freeway around Houston right now, and the traffic on my route to work is nightmarish. I especially ESPECIALLY hate when there's an obvious lane merge ahead (with signs for miles in advance) and jerks STILL wait until the last minute to speed ahead and merge. I'm one of those people who is very much like, "You had a chance, buddy. I'm not sharing the road with you." Now, if the person legitimately doesn't seem to notice, and puts on their signal indicator, I'll generally let them in. It's all about courteousness with me. You try to barge in my lane without any permission or warning, I'm mad.

Churro is SO CUTE OMG.

Cranky = sucky. I feel you. But, at least you're aware of the cranky blues. That's something.

[wildrider]

They're putting something new in around the airport, and it's got my route to work in a hellish mess. Blargh.

Yes, he is. Terribly, adorably evil.

Lili is currently the cute bane of our existence. You can only go about 30 minutes without yelling 'LILI!' at her for something. Generally, it's her getting on the tops of the tables and the kitchen counter (HUGE no-no). She knows already that we are only angry for about five seconds before her cuteness cures any hurt - until she breaks something important and irreplaceable, at which point Mom will just kill her. Until then she's tiny, fearless, and WAY too curious for her own good. I would post pictures, but she never stops moving long enough to catch her in a still photo.

[wildrider]

You have to catch them at those odd moments when they run temporarily out of kitten energy and shut down for a spell. It doesn't last long, but it happens!

Their cuteness is what prevents them from being murdered on a regular basis.
