1. what is it with dudes and pencil skirts? today i wore this polyester candy apple red pencil skirt i got from the thrift store for $1 like 5 years ago, and this shirt that was twice as old that i forgot i even had. everyone was like whoa damn. some random white guy in line at wendy's was like heyyy. (around here, usually only black guys do this.) it was funny that i literally just threw this outfit together - i had another outfit laid out already but decided against it because i'd have to iron it. guess i chose correctly. 2. motherfucking gulab jamun. what's up. i cannot stop eating it. 3. mr. able came by yesterday (i don't work with him anymore except on occasion, over the phone) and i was telling him how much i missed him and his gf and the kids and the dog and he's like just stop by anytime! go into my house and pet her, you know the door is always open (literally)! and then later, as we were getting ready to leave for the night, his gf stopped by with the dog and we all caught up and they invited me over for dinner. and i'm like omg ... i miss you guys. i've never met such kind, generous, awesome people. it feels incredible to be around people who have no agenda, they're not sizing you up. they're not asking you leading questions, trying to extract information from you that they can use against you later. it's like ... wow. this is what normal people are like. 4. i genuinely don't understand what the fuck some people are doing in their cars. like every day i encounter at least 2 people who should under no circumstances be allowed to drive. i'm just like seriously though. what the fuck are you doing. do people not realize that they are driving 1+ ton boxes of metal and wire filled with flammable liquids at high speeds? i cannot tell you how many times someone just sails over from the other lane without looking over AT ALL, no blinker. or, there is no one else coming in either direction except for you, but a person pulling out of a road/driveway on your right decides that they are going to turn left in front of you ... hmmm. are they going to pull out? or are they going to wait until you, literally the only vehicle coming, pass by? nope, they're like "i know what would be fun. i'm going to wait til this person going 50 mph is about 100 feet away. THEN i'm going to pull out. that's the perfect time." (i can't even tell you how often this happens. if i started keeping tabs i would probably cry myself to sleep every night.) oh and while i'm on a fucking roll here, how about my other top favorites: the "i have no idea where i'm going so i'm going to randomly swerve between lanes, slam on my brakes and then suddenly speed up again every quarter mile before eventually making an abrupt left or right turn from the furthest lane while the incorrect blinker is on (lol if i'm even using one)," and the "i plan on turning eventually so i'm just going to randomly take my foot off the gas and gradually slow down to almost a complete stop in anticipation," or how about the ever so popular "i am from another state and i have no idea where i am and know nothing about the driving culture in new jersey but have firmly resolved to ignore every single sign i pass that tells me what lane i should be in and what i should do." and how could i forget. the "i see someone i know on the sidewalk so i'm going to slam on my brakes and stop in the middle of a lane for driving to have a conversation out the window." new jersey is the most densely populated state in the us. there are so fucking many people here, man. the traffic here is unbelievable, all the time. like you genuinely don't understand it unless you live in some kind of major city and also have to drive in it, all the time. or unless you've had the displeasure of having to drive through here. i live in an area that's considered "the middle of nowhere" but it's still not unheard of for it to take an hour for a round trip to somewhere that's 5 miles away during rush hour. my favorite sushi place is just under 10 miles away but if i order delivery during rush hour or any kind of inclement weather, it's 2 hours minimum. there are too goddamn many people to begin with, and there's barely any public transportation for some reason, so everyfuckingone drives. it gets to a point when you're just like guys. come on already. like fuck. and then i just feel like i'm going to have a heart attack when the person fucking everything up is from out of state. it's so bad already without you here. at least try your best. that's all, i need a shower. as sexy as i looked today, it was so fucking hot. let's roll man, i'm done with the summer. let's go. |
