Out of My Box

Monday, November 12th, 2007

This evening I stepped out of my box. Monkey and I ate at Taco Bell and I usually order the same two things (not together) when we go. This evening I decided to order something different and got a burrito supreme. It was okay, but I cannot say that I will get one again.

Guess I should have stayed in my box?

Oh Chrismas Tree, Oh Chrismas Tree

Monday, November 12th, 2007

Today is November 12th, right? Yeah, I know it is. I just saw a ginormous semi truck full of Christmas trees on the highway. Uhm, I think they are going to be way dead by the actual day. WTF are they thinking? You cannot cut a tree a month and a half early and expect it to survive through the holidays!

Think before you buy your, “I’m already 3/4 dead Christmas tree” in the next month or so.

I Was Scared for Her!

Monday, November 12th, 2007

I stopped for a red light this morning on Capitol, not a huge deal, right? Light turns yellow, you stop before it turns red. Anyway.

As I sat in my car waiting for the light to turn green, a man crossed in the crosswalk. Again, not a huge deal. Well, the guy was sort of mumbling to himself, making hand gestures, and then he looked up at me. I made sure not to make any sort of eye contact with said man and just looked away. He crossed and stood in the middle of the 4 lanes, looked before he crossed, as he started to walk a car turning into the intersection just about nailed him! He hesitated for a second and apparently thought she was going to wait for him to cross…yeah, not so much. Seriously, she almost ran his toes over! He threw his hands in the air, was mouthing something obscene at her, and then pulled a pen out of his pocket and started writing on his hand. I can only guess he was writing her license plate number down. Oh yeah, gets better. After he finished writing, he threw her a death look, made a gun out of his fingers and ’shot’ her!

Now, if you know the area I am talking about in Milwaukee, you know that the guy probably would have shot her if he in fact had a real gun. Not even kidding and now he has her license plate number. I’m thinking she could be taken out for almost running his feet over. I dunno, but I was scared for the girl and she didn’t seem to even notice that she almost hit him!
