As the title might reference, the language used would not be good. But I was just driving between college campus' and I ALWAYS have to wonder if people forgot how to drive when they sat behind the wheel of their car, or if they are just deliberately bad drivers. I live in Maine, and just like any other part of the country (this is speculation on my part of course) people think themselves to be the only drivers on the road, or they just blatantly don't care about the other cars around them. It always leaves me in a super cranky mood when I am driving in the city area and I am cut off-swerved around, and tail gated for absolutely NO reason. It's not like I am going slower than the speed limit. Usually I am going even a tad above it (not dangerously so, because I am in a city and that's hard to do), so why the rude tail gating? AH! It's just so frustrating, or even better, is when you are sitting in a parked car in a parking lot, getting ready to leave sure, but not in any rush. Someone sees you walk up to your car, so they stop to wait for your open spot. Sorry that I don't have any intentions on hurrying along so you can have my spot, I have to put my backpack away, get everything with my music (connected to my phone) set up so I am not messing with it while driving, so needless to say I don't just hop in and go. I also don't make an exception to that just because some idiot wants to hold up traffic to wait for me. And then this SAME idiot has the nerve to honk at ME because I am taking too much time. Well, sir, it is MY parking spot, I got here first, and I will leave when I am damn good and ready. Jeeeezzz. People these days are just so stressed and crazy. It's worrisome I'd say.

Yes, this was more of a rant than anything, but you never know, one of these terrible drivers could read this and change and make my driving around a little safer....that's wishful thinking on my part of course, but that's ok :).

On a new topic, it is a beautiful day out today, sunny and high forties to low 50s in some areas. Its so nice, I'm even sure that when I go to get in my car it will be warm. The only sad part is that I don't really get to go out and enjoy it as much as I would like, but it finally feels like Spring is really in the air and not just in our heads. And being from Maine, when Spring finally comes it feels so amazing to feel warm again. ahhhhh refreshing.

And in a random side note, my 8.5 month old puppy hates cats..of this I am convinced. He barks at them and chases them ALL around the house. If by chance you are on the otherside of the baby gate giving a kitty some love, he gets all whiny and SUPER jealous. I think that at some point here I have to break him of this, but everyone keeps telling me (the trainers and vets) that the animals will work it out for themselves and that's how it has to be. It does make sense that after a while they will probably duke it out and be friends, but how much abuse can a cat take from a dog? I mean CJ will hiss and make a break for it, smart as he is and all, but our other cat, Salem, just kinda takes it for a while, then finally meows and books it. It's so bizarre. Maybe at some point I should catch a video of this odd behavior so people will know what I am talking about haha.

Well, all of you out there have a wonderful day, hopefully my sunny day is far and wide for all to enjoy!

Sincerely yours,
Katy
