Random Thoughts V

I must be crabby this morning. First I have two trucks going 66.5 in the left lane, passing cars going 66. Yes - I wanted to exceed the speed limit by a little bit more than that...

Then I'm coming up the hill on Beach behind a bicycle that is doing about 2.8 mph (seriously, I didn't even have my foot on the gas, going up hill). He's in the middle of the lane...and there is a bike path not ten feet to his right.

Then I get to my parking lot, and I can't turn left into my lot because of people backed up at the stop sign behind me. Do they leave a gap? Oh, hells no.

Enter my building through the loading dock, girl entered just ahead of me. Waaaaay too much crap on the dock waiting several months for asset recovery to come pick it up, so it's crowded. She decides it's a good time to come to a near stop while texting someone...right in front of the only door leading into the hall. After saying "Excuse me" twice, I physically took her by the shoulders and moved her over so that I could get past her. You can imagine the glare I got. It took all of my self-control to not flip her off.

Somebody send me happy thoughts before I kill someone!

Slow drivers in the left lane are at the top of my pet peeves list. I'd want to shank a ***** too.
 
I feel better now. This put me in a happy place.

For the corgi lovers:

one of my biggest pet peeves is one someone pulls out in front of me and then goes well below the limit. Like it makes me consider the cost of yet another bumper.

Z got up at 5:30 and wanted hugs and then to play. She has play dough now to play with.
 
I have been working on getting our office a new coffee maker, or at least trying. I have finally been put through to a sales rep that gets back to me. I told him what we were looking for in a new coffee maker and he says that the one I saw would be an extra $x to rent monthly since we're a small office.

I have been asking him questions about what other options there are and what different rent amounts would be. He basically told me I want a unicorn. So I asked about what other options there were if it didn't meet our preferred even said that we didn't have to have a grind and brew.

Is it normal to just not give me options? I realize that the original request was pretty steep, but I asked for a list of other ideas and $x amounts. Am I being unreasonable?

Are they your only option to go through? Because if they won't at least give you the other options (even if they are all out of the price range and style - show them to you anyway to let you know!), I'd be seeing who else you could contact.

They are supposed to be the only option. I don't understand why the guy wouldn't at least say this is what we have and the cost. You would think it would be at least wise incase we suddenly decided $x a month would be okay.

How do these movies keep getting made? I've heard of about two of them on this new releases list from Redbox. Who watches this crap?

The original I Spit on Your Grave, while dark and very gruesome, was a pretty good flick? Haven't seen the remake or the sequels to the original though.

Pitch Perfect 2 wasn't the worst thing in the world, though it was lamely predictable.

guys, I just got that ticket sold for full price to a person at work I would love to be friends with and think would fit super fantastically into the friends' group going. This is awesome.
