Grumble, Grumble, Stupid, Grumble, Grumble
So, I leave the house especially to get to the bank before 4p, so my deposit will count for today. Sure enough, the ATM “mechanics” are in the drive-thru working on it. Figures. But whatever, I’m not opposed to a little exercise, so I park the car (even a little extra far away because the place is a zoo), get out and actually walk to their other ATM. Gah, the screen is blank. It is now 3:55p and people are streaming like ants into the bank because of the broken ATMs, so there’s no point in me going in and waiting in line when I can just make the deposit tomorrow. But geez, I left the house ONLY to go to the bank. Instead, I guess I ended up taking the long way to Starbucks.
While on Tropical Parkway (don’t you just love how in the middle of the desert, we get “Tropical” Pwy, as if...), I was behind a silver/grey Saturn Vue with a bumper sticker that said, “ DEFEND AMERICA, Defeat Bush” and it cheered me. I still have my “48 Nobel Prize Winning Scientists Agree...John Kerry, the Clear Choice for President” sticker on my car. I really despise bumper stickers and it’s the first one I’ve ever put on any car I’ve owned in the 24 years I’ve been driving. I’ve been putting off removing it, but perhaps it’s time. We got a Maple Leafs sticker in the mail today—maybe I’ll just swap ‘em out. I was never crazy about John Kerry, although he impressed me in the debates. Then again, a small child could’ve beaten Bush in a debate. I digress, a sticker, do I want another sticker on my car?
