I can't believe I'm even complaining about this stuff... but here goes. I am *SO* tired of people shooting off fireworks late at night. I don't mind it on New Year's Eve... but this crap has been going on ALL freaking weekend. Do these people start shooting them around 8 or 9? NO. They wait until it's after 10pm, normally closer to 11 or midnight. It's bad enough it's been storming for 2 weeks now, and the lightning and thunder is freaking my pets out... but now we add fireworks for hours at a time.

I must be getting old. I remember when I was the kid out shooting the fireworks. Of course, we lived out in the county- no law against fireworks there. :)

While I'm on a vent... know what else drives me crazy? Bass in car stereos SO LOUD, you can't even understand the song. If your rearview mirror is about to vibrate loose from the windshied... the bass is too FREAKING high! If your car is parked 3 houses down from mine, but my windows are shaking... it's TOO FREAKING high!

And here's another gripe I have... it has nothing to do with age... I *hate* the way other producers do my show when I'm on vacation. I'm watching the 10pm right now... and it just plain SUCKS. Story content is HORRIBLE, story lineup is crap... :/

Though I would love more time off, I need to be back at work to save my show!!!!!!! :)

Ok... I'm done now!

Okay, now I'm not one of those fortune tellers or mind readers, it's true.  But I am good at reading between the lines and I think I see what's going on here.  First of all, you have to read the words, then you have to ask “what is the reason for saying something that unusual, outlandish or shocking?”  Then you can figure something is meant by what is said and that something is different from what is actually said.

Towit: Nobody is that anal Frolix.  A girl who likes animals and fun the way you do cannot possibly be that meticulous - so much so that the weekly planner has to be neat?  Come on!  So why would you say such a thing?  OH, I get it.  You didn't find Luna's show to be all that bad while she was away and you wanted to point out to her that she was judging it too harshly, so you pretended to be even more anal about your desk and your job.  Ah Hah!

On the other hand, wasn't it that Florida serial killer who was so neat compulsive that his pants and shirts had to be hung in his closet the exact same distance apart and never allowed to touch each other?  There are people like that serial rapist/killer social misfit monster, I suppose.  Hmmm.  Who do you suppose invented that dispicable character called Mickey?  Hmmm.

Now to my pet peeve.  I hate when people stick their noses into other people's conversations and start offering psycoanalizations when they don't know beans.

 

Gosh darn.  I fully expected my feeble attempt at humor would get me in deep do do with Frolix.  I'm used to that.  We often exchange barbs.  But I never expected to cause you so many tears.  obviously, you thought I said what I said after you said what you said and Frolix said you said what you said and I said it different from what I said I was going to said.

(That's how I get out of trouble with Pidder.  I just ramble on so she can't understand what I'm saying and let the contrite tone of my apolgetic voice do its magic.  Pretty soon she gets that look on her face that says, “Oh well, after all he's just a man.”  Then she forgives me.  Is it working with you?)

That, and the new picture of myself holding a six ounce tumbler of Tequella should do the trick.  Actually, you must be doing a good job 'cause even after WKRG cancelled the forum and ticked me off I came right back to it for the late news every night.  I tried the rest and returned to the best, except when you are on vacation of course.

My next goal in life is to visit Frolix office so I can find her head turned and move a file from its neat stack and turn it on a 45 degree angle.  After that, I'll go to Disney World.  Then I can die happy, my life complete.
