This post is for all of the angry people out there....

When I got back to my car, I had a napkin with two things written on it.

The first, in blue ink, said "LEARN TO PARK ASSHOLE!!!"

The second, in pink, said "Get some mental help, prozac, anything!!!"

I laughed it off and threw the napkin away. I had parked a little too far to the right side, only because the person to the left of me had parked far over the line. Having a small car, I was able to leave enough space on both sides. In fact, I made it a point to leave more room for the driver on my right side so they didn't have to suffer for what the person on my left had done, and I gave myself almost no room to get in and out. But then I saw the note and I figured someone, somehow, got pissed off anyway and decided to rip into me.

Then, as I was driving away, something occurred to me.

The two different color inks must have been two DIFFERENT people! I had somehow gotten caught in the middle of it.. My guess is that the person who was in my spot before me left the note on the window of the car to the left, and, thinking it was me, the person to the left wrote back and placed it on my window.

So I, being completely uninvolved, ended up getting the brunt of the hatred.

Let this be a message to all of you irate drivers out there.. Sometimes, someone parks a little too far in your personal space, not because they wanted to, but because the person next to them parked too far in their personal space. And sometimes, when you let your anger at the injustice fester, and you decide to react, you lash out at the WRONG person. Today, with my breezy sundress and carefree smile on my face, the person who got the angry note left on her window ended up being me.

Happy thought for the day:

You get exposed to more radiation eating a banana than living in proximity to a nuclear power plant.

my silence is how I show my love."

"I'd look back but I'm too far away
A ghost to the faces I miss."

Between a lack of inspiration as of late, and a flurry of events and emotions that have utterly drained me, my posts have been brief. I promise I'll write something good when I truly feel it.

In the meantime, I'd like to take the opportunity to talk about something super serious.

The word "this" is not a noun. It's an adjective. And if I read one more scholarly paper referencing a previously mentioned abstract idea ambiguously by referring to it as "this", I'ma rage so hard. #$#@%$#%$#%^%$^$^#$@#$@#$@$#%#$

That is all. ^_^

Leaving on an epic journey to the wilds of Wisconsin. Miss you guys, love ya.

Just for you Lance:

One night, and one more time.

Sweet agony.

To an optimist, the glass is half full. To a pessimist, the glass is half empty. To an engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

...and I close my eyes, and I sink into what is both familiar, and entirely new, at the same time.. I let the warmth and excitement wash over me.. let the feeling take away my pain, even for a short time.

What was the start of all this?
When did the cogs of fate begin to turn?
Perhaps it is impossible to grasp that answer now,
From deep within the flow of time...

But, for a certainty, back then,
We loved so many, yet hated so much,
We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...
Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
Whilst our laughter echoed,
Under cerulean skies...

While trying to decide today if it's warm enough to wear a cute dress, I checked the Weather Channel's website.. and got this.

Lolwut??! I wonder what poor city's weather got mixed up with mine as their packets of information flew past each other in cyberspace. I hit reload a few times and got the real weather (high of 79 again, /yawn).. but this at least started my day off with a laugh.

EDIT: I'd like to thank Christophe for pointing out that the temperature in the screenshot is in Celsius, and that the forecast was quite accurate... and for reminding me that there's a good reason that I don't wake up at 7:30 AM most days..

Our conversation tonight reminded me of this song. We grew up way too fast..

And even though the moment passed me by, I still can't turn away.

It's so true :(
