"Can I take your order please?"
"I'd like a Banana Chocolae Vivanno".
“Oh I just looked and they didn’t deliver any bananas to us today, would you like…”
"That is just great now that I'm stuck in your drive thru line..."
Now, I know, this is a petty rant. Right now, no one is sick, no one is dying (kine ahora), and no one is unemployed for now so for that I give great thanks to G-d and fate.
BUT
9:10 am “Girls I don’t think we have time to go to ice skating lessons today…”
This from my husband who was up at the early hour of 6 am, but can’t seem to get it together enough to get the girls ready for skating. Apparently, that is only a Mommy job.
10:00 am – No bananas at Starbucks – the above described incident. But, that is okay I think to myself, I’ll just grab something at work, b/c Merle usually brings something in for breakfast.
10:15 am – Hmmmm? The door is locked and there is no receptionist. I knew I hadn’t worked on the weekends since I had my children 4 years ago. I guess everyone else did to. Even Carl? You must be joking but no one is here. Including breakfast.
10:20 am - to to sign on to my computer - "the network cannot log you in..."
WTF??? We should name our computer network “Mulligan” it takes at least 2 tries before it decides its okay to log you in.
But its nice that no one is here, b/c I have on no make up and look pretty rough.
But speaking of big issues, I’d like to send up a prayer for Kiko (whatever your fucking Hawaiian name is (aka Seth b/4 you decided to adopt a Hawaiian name) and Angel. In these trying times, Angel got laid off from her job at Monsanto after 14 years, and then 2 weeks later, Kiko got laid off from his job at CMS – the place that “laid off” my husband in 2003 when he fell out of favor. Everyone at CMS takes a turn at getting fired. The person responsible for firing my husband in 2003 was fired a year after that.
I just feel sorry for Kiko b/c he knew what a shithole that place was to work at, and then, after finding a new job, went BACK to work there only to be let go less than 2 years afterwards. And he has 5 children and an ex-wife to provide for.
I pray for all those suffering poor bastards in this dismal economy. And Osama bin Obama?
I know this will engender a lot of hatred amongst you Obama girls, but WTF?
Jimmy Carter all over again. Not much substance behind all the "Yes we can" bullshit hype. Unemployment over 10%?! Osama administration "It could have been worse, and its 'W's fault anyway".
“W” must be laughing his ass off now. Probably glad to have unloaded this Country’s problems on to that novice.
I liked “W”.
I voted for Gore/Lieberman. I was very disappointed when “W” was declared the winner; as one of my colleagues said, “If he wins, we will all be praying to Jesus – and I mean literally”
I voted for the Gore ticket b/c I liked Lieberman.
But you know who I liked 9.11.01? George "W" Bush, the cowboy in us all who just said "You fucking assholes!!!!"
It's so nice to read someone who is not worshiping at the altar of O. I think he's laughing too.
