“I would like to take you seriously, but to do so would be an affront to your intelligence.”

It is one of those days folks, and yes it is only 2:45. A number of occurrences have, well, occurred that make me question the order of the universe and I am henceforth going to list them off for your reading and pondering pleasure.

1) It is 75 degrees today, yes, today, November 29th. I woke up this morning for church, and got dressed in my Sunday best. Sunday best = TURTLE NECK and WOOL PANTS! Excuse me mother nature, I am dressed for November 29th, what is your problem?


2) I am decorating for Christmas in 75 degree weather. It just feels wrong, and that is all I have to say about that.


3) Whilst driving home from church today, the highway was full of insane Thanksgiving Travelers rushing back to their homes. It is crazy what turkey and football and traffic jams will do to you! For instance, the south bound lane was in a traffic jam, though a minor one. My lane, the north bound, was moving at a brisk 75 mph (there's that number again!) and was highly congested. At this point a determined South Bound driver from Tennessee decided to drive across the median into the North Bound traffic RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME! I. Almost. Died! Who do you think you are Tennessee driver?! In Virginia we do not pull out in front of someone going 75 in bumper to bumper traffic.

Well I gave Tennessee driver the horn, that'll show 'em. (You should be proud of me, I am normally quite passive.)

And we now know my brakes are fine!


4) Aforementioned Thanksgiving Traffic has congested my town making it impossible for me to make a left turn out of my drive way. Oh the joys of living in a highway stop town.


5) I played a solo in church today, and royally screwed it up. Its just that I was transcribing from treble clef and down an octave, and have not done that in a while. It also happened to be the only Sunday that a respected authority on music happened to be in attendance. (blush)


6) You know how after Thanksgiving ABC Family and Lifetime start playing non-stop holiday movies back-to-back? Well I have found myself stuck to the TV watching one of these channels and then all of a sudden I look at the clock and time has passed me by! "Shoot! I was suppose to be doing X, and Y, and Z, and now I've wasted my day with cheeezy holiday flicks!" is what I say. They get me every time, and don't lie because I know they get you too.


7) Olive (cat #1) was trying to eat Santa's head. That just makes me sad. Don't do it Olive, Santa LOVES you!


8) Thanksgiving break is over, and tomorrow is Monday. Oh Monday. Tomorrow I must to return to my job where I must put up with hormonal angsty teenagers once more. I love my job...I love my job...I love my job...I love my job...I love my job...

How many times do you think I must repeat it to make me believe it?


All I have to say now is:

SERIOUSLY!
