I am a car at quarter tank...
1st off, Correction to my last entry...my watch has a dial that goes from 1 to 31, not 30...makes more sense that way...that's better...
For goodness sakes
Before I get into other things, I must mention that I have a renewed hate for people who drive while on their cell phones. I'm not talking about people who use hands free apparati, but those who HOLD it to their ear. As I was driving home from lunch with a few friends(of which I shall mention after this vent session), and after merging onto the 10E from the 405 and about to exit, this absolute moron on a cell phone in the lane next to me tried to switch all of the sudden tried to switch into MY lane! Immediately depressed the horn and looked to my left, but there was a car there! Luckily, there was no vehicle in the lane immediately to my left, but there was a car right behind me and behind him...I kept holding onto the horn and the freakin punk ass mofo didn't even hear me honking at first! So the other 2 cars started honking and he finally notices, and I pull up to him and I'm goin crazy yelling at him saying get off your FUCKIN cell phone you stupid piece of SHIT! and a whole bunch of stuff. Needless to say, I blew my top off at him. He freaked out and just put down his cell phone and just kept on driving, looking away from my direction....GOODNESS MAN, that would've resulted in a serious accident all because that fuckin idiot wasn't paying any attention to what he was doing...DRIVING!!! When I first heard about how dangerous it was to drive while holding your phone, I kinda laughed it off and just forgot all about it. And I remember some of my friends telling me how they sometimes get distracted by people or something like that. I mean, driving's hard enough as it is as far as being aware of your surroundings, and the cell phone just hinders you that much more...okay, I'm done.
A for Effort
Jon Jon is one of the coolest people I know. He's been so busy lately w/ school and so whenever he gets the chance to, during his breaks, he makes a huge effort to hang out and catch up w/ his friends. I find that really admirable because I don't see many people make that much of an effort to hang out w/ their old friends. I mean, like one or two, or even three or four, yeah, but he's tried to see every single one of them in the past couple weeks...and that's really cool. I was thinking about this the other day, how I used to think that after college, I'd have more time to hang out w/ my friends. But it's just the opposite, it's actually HARDER to hang out. Everybody's workin, so it's not so easy to hang out late on a weeknight, and then everybody's moved, some into their own places, some back to where they were originally from, some, just elsewhere, so people are further away from each other. And the commonground, which was once school, is now no longer. It's funny cuz while IN school, I used to see it as a barrier keeping me from hanging out w/ my friends, cuz I was always locked up in computer labs, or in the shop or something like that. But actually, I would get to see them on campus and make the most of the 15-20 minutes I'd see them while walking to class or at cornerstone or something. Crazy how things change and how we all become Mr. and Miss and Mrs. Busy's. But it IS possible to keep in touch w/ all your friends, as long as the effort's there. So Kudos, Mr. Jon Jon...
