grrrr.....

there are little things in life that tick ya.


here's my story
last night i had to get gas .....desperately. i was on empty half way to work in the morning so after work i HAD to get some fuel. so i went to Mac's. i decided i was going to be quick (cause there was a line) so i prepaid at the tank so i didn't have to go inside when done.... and i got stuck with the slowest. gas pump. ever.

usually you see the price go up by dollars..... i watched this go up by cents. LITERALLY. $1.27, $1.28 , $1.29....

and i had prepaid $50.00

then a big U-Haul truck pulls in behind me and of course needs the whole side i am on (at this point i am at $3.89). after 5 minutes they roll down thier window. after 7 they are making comments to each other.... just loud enough for me to hear.

plus.... i am standing in a puddle and forgot my mitts in the car - but am afraid of the wrath i might encounter if i go to get them.

i got out of my car at 5:01
i got back in my car at 5:19

it took me 18...... 18 precious minutes to fill up my car.

worst. gas. experience. ever.

although i did get a little self-satisfactory laugh at the thought of those u-haul guys filling up thier truck at the pump. wonder how long it took them...

so you can imagine i am ticked.

then i get behind a car going 60 in a 90 ... when we all know that 90 really means 110

and then the radio person says, "i seen" (it's "i saw" or "i have seen" people)

grr......

here's hoping this afternoon fares a little better
