This will be another of my cryptic posts to protect the innocent. There was an incident  I heard of where a very evil person tried to tear a marrage, a family, apart, based on a lie. Seemingly, just for fun. I honestly don’t know how some people sleep at night. To have complete disregard for people’s lives-there is no other word for it but evil.

 

RSVP for the love of Peter Paul and Mary November 6, 2007

I and others have found when organizing an event the getting of RSVP’s are like pulling teeth. I have even read an article in the newspaper about this issue. The planner really doesn’t need to know WHY you can’t come-just a yes no or even a maybe. An acknowledgement of some sort is nice. If the “inviter” thought enough of the “invitee” to ask them and is requesting a response one of those three little words-especially by e mail aren’t hard to type or even call and say “sorry I have a prior commitment.” Either you’re free or not on the date of said event or maybe you are waiting for something better to come up or something to clear up-whatever just respond for the love of God. Okay I am done venting.

 

Oh Lord won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz October 19, 2007

So I am the proud owner of a red JEEP Cherokee that has many issues. For one it randomly will or will not open it’s windows.  The trunk was mended with bond that was very heavy so we’d have to replace the entire piece to correct the fact that it tries to decapitate you each time you open it.  The least of it’s issues is the A/C doesn’t work. Well TODAY it started hurling dark foam pieces at me that I initially thought were bugs. I veered to the side of the road screaming to my kids cover you eyes and keep your mouth shut (I don’t know… I thought the bugs would attack these areas) but when I stopped with all intentions of abandoning the piece of crap I inspected tha large man eating spider on my leg to find it was a piece of foam. So I get to my destination and run inside as it is pouring rain-come out-I had left the lights on. Still I blame this on the automobile as I am certain he is posessed and just to toy with me decided to turn them on himself and almost entirely drain my battery. My vehicle and I we have never been friends and  doubt we ever will be…I have named him but I can’t tell ya what I call him-it isn’t very nice.

where the cops are when the moron pig headed a-hole makes a left in front of me causing me to jam on my breaks so hard I come to a screeching halt only inches away from him, causing my water bottle to fly up and hit me in the arm-’cause they sure as hell are there when I don’t quite make a complete stop at a stop sign when there are absolutely NO cars approaching because it’s the middle of the night and they are sure there when when my husband goes over the limit a bit-WHERE are they when there are real alarming idiots causing real danger?! Where are they then huh?
