			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;ve been doing a lot of driving this summer, and I&#8217;ve made a few observations.  (Me alone with my thoughts never amounts too any good, as you know.)  There is one kind of driving behavior that really makes me nuts&#8230; the freaks who feel the need to ride your ass!  I am not a slow driver, so I feel like there&#8217;s no need for anyone to be on my bumper.  But there are certain people who just don&#8217;t like to have ANYONE in front of them even if they don&#8217;t necessarily want to drive any faster.  Through my observations, I&#8217;ve made some assumptions about these very people&#8230; and most fall into a few categories.  (You know what they say about assumptions&#8230; I can use them to make an ass out of you&#8230; oh wait&#8230; that&#8217;s not it.)</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em>Disclaimer:  I realize teenagers and the like have a need for speed.  I forgive them.  Once you hit 25, however, you are an official grown-up and are subject to harsh judgment.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Guy on your ass:</span> This guy has a small penis.  There&#8217;s no getting around it.  He&#8217;s out there trying to show he can dominate somewhere since he can&#8217;t do so in the bedroom.  Guys&#8230; if you really don&#8217;t have a small penis, please realize this is what you&#8217;re telling the world when you&#8217;re tailgating.  Also, guys who drive like assholes with their girls in the car are asking to be dumped.  It&#8217;s a deal-breaker.  If your ego is more important than her safety, that&#8217;s a peek into the self-centered jackass you truly are.  Just sayin&#8217;.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Woman in SUV on your ass:</span> Poor girl has a husband with a small penis.  She&#8217;s got to take her sexual frustration out on someone.  Lucky you.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Woman in mini-van on your ass:</span> This woman is bitter that she gave up her posh job in finance to have kids.  I&#8217;m sure her daily affirmations on Facebook try to tell you that being a mom is the greatest thing ever.  But really, she&#8217;s just trying to convince herself.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Guy riding crotch rocket on your ass:</span> See number 1, except add in a little confusion about his sexuality.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">So the next time you&#8217;ve got someone on your ass, don&#8217;t get mad.  Decide which of these losers you have on your hands and pity them.  And if that doesn&#8217;t work, slow down and really piss them off.  I plan on making a sign to hold up that says, &#8220;Yes, I know you have a small penis.&#8221;  I&#8217;ll let you know how that goes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;m fairly obsessed with gum.  I always have some with me and rarely run out.  This could be because my mom used to monitor my gum usage.  She&#8217;d keep it in a special drawer and I was allowed to take ONE PIECE of sugar-free cinnamon gum with me each morning before school.  A normal kid would have ripped it into pieces and spread it out through the day.  But I *had* to shove the whole thing in my mouth immediately.  And as an act of (passive) aggression, I always threw the wrapper in the drawer for Mom to find later.  Score 1 for me.  But I digress&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">On my way home from a friend&#8217;s house today, I was frantically searching my purse for a piece of gum.  No luck.  I unsuccessfully checked every hiding place in the car.  Oh noes!  The whole world seemed out of balance.  I managed to calm myself through the withdrawal fits&#8230; then I suddenly smelled fresh gum.  Is it a mirage?  Is there a piece of gum hiding somewhere, taunting me?  Oh wait&#8230; I&#8217;m passing a Wrigley&#8217;s factory!  *Takes a big whiff*  Mmmmm&#8230; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrZvUlGJr30&amp;feature=related" target="_blank">Juicy Fruit</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I drive by this factory 40-50 times a year and I have NEVER smelled gum.  Maybe the other gum flavors aren&#8217;t as aromatic.  Maybe I haven&#8217;t been going by at the right time.  Maybe my <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Kek3GqbsTk" target="_blank">Spidey senses were tingling</a> in my weakened state.  Regardless, I couldn&#8217;t believe how fragrant it was&#8230; and fresh&#8230; and delicious.  It was just enough of a buzz to get me home with a big smile on my face.  I love it when something so small can make my day.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">La la laaaa la laaaaaaaaaaa&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aI4YaLJKFw4&amp;NR=1" target="_blank">Daria</a> has been released as a full series DVD  set!  I&#8217;ve been waiting for this day to come for years.  Daria is one of my  favorite shows of all time&#8230; and very rare to find on tv anymore.  My friends  do not appreciate Daria at all, but they absolutely love how hooked I am&#8230; it&#8217;s  a part of my lovable charm.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve always loved Daria because I can  totally relate to her&#8230; although we&#8217;re not exactly alike, we have much in  common. Daria is smart and sarcastic.  She&#8217;s got a sister who is absolutely  exhausting (mine isn&#8217;t anything like Quinn, but exhausting in her very own  special way).  Daria is constantly confused/annoyed/entertained by the stupidity  of those around her&#8230; and usually has a caustic remark to sum things up  nicely.  Sooooooooo me.</p>
<p>While I don&#8217;t dress in unfortunately drab clothing,  speak in a monotone, or have to be coerced into every activity&#8230; I certainly  share her disdain for the world and her love of snark.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">I was at Target recently with a huge list of necessities.  Surprisingly, there were not many whining kids around to annoy me.  I couldn&#8217;t believe how quickly I was moving through the store, especially considering they were under construction and in the midst of reorganizing the whole place.  It all seemed too good to be true&#8230; and it was.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Enter the oversharer&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">As I approached the girl&#8217;s only aisle, I had no idea of the horrors that lay ahead.  I don&#8217;t generally dawdle here, but they had rearranged everything&#8230; so I had to scan the whole aisle for what I needed.  The oversharer noticed me scanning and felt the need to offer her pearls of wisdom&#8230; or rather, offer too much information (TMI).  &#8220;These (points to the heavy duty elephant flow pads on the top shelf) are wonderful!  I&#8217;ve had a heavy flow since I&#8217;ve got these cysts and these are the only things that let me get through the night.&#8221;  Ummmmmmmmmmmmmm&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I stood there dazed.  Was she seriously discussing her woman stuff with a total stranger in Target?  I&#8217;m guessing she had probably posted it as her Facebook status already, so I was literally the only person left to tell.  The best I could do was offer a weak &#8220;yeah&#8221; and then quickly make my exit.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">It still haunts me&#8230; I&#8217;m hoping grossing you all out will help me heal.  You&#8217;re welcome.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">My birthday was this weekend.  When my sister called to wish me a happy one she asked how I felt being a year older.  I told her I felt old.  She assured me that I wasn&#8217;t old.  But this didn&#8217;t comfort me much since she&#8217;s 9 years older than me&#8230; she was really just trying to make herself feel better.  If she admits I&#8217;m old, then she&#8217;s ancient by comparison.  LOL  I loved that she seemed a bit terrified by this, so I egged her on a bit.  I joked that it was time for me to have my mid-life crisis now&#8230; perhaps buy a sports car.  She reminded me that sports cars are usually what men do&#8230; so then I wondered what do women do?  The best my sister could come up with is &#8220;get hair extensions&#8221;.  Maybe I&#8217;ll get <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/03/01/vajazzle-tryout-editor-br_n_480762.html" target="_blank">vajazzled</a> instead.  ROFL</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">I am not a huge fan of going to the movies.  I can&#8217;t even tell you the last time I went to see one in the theater.  I remember <em>Forrest Gump</em>&#8230; and <em>Titanic</em>&#8230; and <em>Blair Witch Project</em><em></em>&#8230; oh my, has it been THAT long?  OK maybe not, but it&#8217;s been awhile.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Back in the day, I had roommates and several people who crashed with us all weekend long.  We saw a lot of movies then.  However, now that we&#8217;re all grown up, we don&#8217;t have the luxury of seeing each other every day.  When I get together with my friends now I don&#8217;t want to spend half of our time sitting in silence through a movie.  We usually have way too much to catch up on to waste time.  Unless you&#8217;re a huge movie buff, going to the movies is something you do with people you have little in common with or when things are stale (hellooooo date night).</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Another downside to the movies is dealing with the general public.  You all know me well enough to realize I have no tolerance for less than stellar public behavior.  The talking, annoying laughs, smells, and the DISGUSTING chewing habits.  I can&#8217;t enjoy a movie through the slobbery popcorn chomps.  If I wanted to listen to that, I&#8217;d keep my $10 and put my face near my kitty&#8217;s bowls at dinner time.  Actually, she has better manners than most movie-goers.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">And frankly, not a lot of cinemas serve beer.  Huge bummer.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">That being said, my friends and I are venturing out to the movies this weekend!  We wanted to spend the whole day together, so there&#8217;s plenty of time for a movie.  We&#8217;re hitting a 10:30 am show to avoid people, too.  Very shrewd.  We still have the beer issue, but that will be rectified at lunch afterward.  Something tells me we&#8217;ll need a few after <a href="http://www.kicksomepast.com/" target="_blank">Hot Tub Time Machine</a>.  (ROFL, I kid you not.)</p>
