A Little Angry and Hopped Up On Chocolate
I've come to the conclusion that my local oldies station (or let's face it, Clear Channel) is being kept by The Beatles. Not a holiday weekend goes by that there isn't a Beatles Tribute. No Sunday morning can be deemed holy without a Magical Mystery Hour. Now, there are a lot of Beatles fans. A LOT. I like the Beatles, I own some stuff, I appreciate them. But I'm sick of having them shoved down my throat. Back off and play some Elvis will ya?
I'm not a big milk drinker, don't drain the bowl after my cereal nor require a glass of milk to make a complete breakfast. However, the depletion of a gallon of milk is cause for celebration. The last glass from the container brings forth the promise of.... Milky Bubbles. The last little bit you can dribble out of the bottle is nothing short of frothy perfection. Makes me want to bake some brownies. Which I did. And ate for dinner.
If you park so closely to the person next to you that technically you are in their spot and there is less than 2 inches between your vehicle and theirs.... you are a very bad parker and should be punished. Do not make me enter my car from the passenger side and crawl in the most undignified way possible across the front seat in order to leave the parking lot. I will write down your license plate number and find varied uses for the information.
And oh my lan, would you, you as in every cable channel ever, STOP playing that damn beepbeep.com commercial! PLEASE!

Ur... I think all our oldies station plays is the Beatles... so annoying.
Milk always seems to be gone at the most inopportune times at my appartment, like half way through covering a bowl of cereal.
And this may not work if you drive a fancy car, but if not, you can try bashing your door into the offending car a time or two. Might not make them move, but you'll feel better.
LMAO- Are you sure you live in CA??
We have drivers like that in SC by the thousands!!
I agree about the door bashing thing...just make sure there's no one around to see you do it!!
Hate having to crawl across the gears to get to the drivers side...especially in a skirt---get some strandge looks if someone approaches from the side where thay can't see that you're door is blocked by an idiot.
Beatles- I'm married to a Brit- but I like MOST of the Beatles stuff myself. We just have a Brit Sunday morning Breakfast hour while listening. It reminds him of home and I love making him happy.
Check out his site-thebritinsc.blogspot
(Sorry about that but he is an EXCELLent sorcse of humor if you read some of them...makes the not so funny stuff sound like a comedy routine.)
Milk...Paulius and I can go thru 2 gallons in two days- or less!!
Cheese,too,for that matter!!
Brownies....did you HAVE to mention them....Gotta go make some now....! Hope there's milk left!!
;-)
I always have the issue of having my milk go sour before it's all used up. I don't drink a lot of it myself, but you gotta have it you are going to have cereal, eat brownies/oreos/chocolate cake, or make Kraft Macaroni and Cheese (mmm...staple)
I came close to leaving a note on someone's car when they parked too close to me and had to crawl through the passenger side. I was going to put something like, "Thank you for parking close enough that I couldn't get it. I really appreciated the courtesy you showed in doing such, as crawling in from the other side, WITH A BROKEN LEG, was the highlight of my day." I decided against it (it was more of an issue of not having a pen and pad) but it would have made me feel better. Of course not having a broken leg made me feel pretty good, so it all evens out.
spotchlander - the half-dry, half-wet cereal issue is only topped by not having enough milk to make muffins, after I've already poured and mixed the other ingredients.
As for bashing the car door.... (doing a little sheepish head hanging here) yeah, I did. But just a little! And it didn't leave any marks. My car did nothing wrong so I didn't want her to feel punished.
Kato - too many friendships have ended when someone has said to me "Just use water, it will still taste the same." Kraft deserves better.
I actually wrote out a little hateful note after I made it to the driver's seat, but then realized I'd have to back out, put my flashers on and get out of the car to leave the note on his windshield, and with my luck I'd lock my door with the engine running.
Sunny - definitely glad there was no skirt action yesterday! It could have been worse. Thanks for the site, I'll check it out. How were your brownies? :)
Yummy!! But not as good as the chicken-mushroom pie that Paulius made us for dinner! Good looking, a fantastic kisser, superior writing skills AND a chef to to boot.....A good man is FABULOUS to find!!
Too true with muffins...
And when bashing other cars with your own car, just remember that your car is probably even more mischievous than yourself, and so will love to chance to cause damage to neighboring vehicles. Just think of all those times your car wouldn't start when you REALLY need to get somewhere... yeah, see what I mean? Incidently, my pickup hates water, and thus refuses to run in the rain...
