As you've read before, sometimes a girl just needs to rant. Here are a few things that have been annoying me lately.
1. My gym. Here is the story. There is no excuse for me to have to go and ask someone two weekends in a row if they would please put the game on the tvs. It's a GYM. Why the heck do we have it on CSI, the home shopping channel and some Lifetime movie? Are you kidding me? Not acceptable. It's freaking football season. You're a freaking gym. Get it together.
2. People bashing on Notre Dame. I've heard several people make comments like, "I just hate that Notre Dame gets so much attention and it always on tv even when they are not good." "Everyone loves Notre Dame for no reason." Okay, let me explain. People love Notre Dame because it's full of tradition. It's because they are always on tv and the radio that they turn 5 year old kids like me into life long fans. Until you've been to Notre Dame and seen what goes on there on game day, you can't comment on this. I'm here to tell you, and this is from a girl who has been to a lot of great college football events, there is nothing like game day at Notre Dame. That place is magical. Especially when they win in over time and you rush the field. And this year, they're 10-0 so shut your face about them being on tv (everywhere but my gym, as noted above). That's right where they should be.

3. The deli. So on Saturday night after the gym I went to the grocery store to get my favorite lunch meat, bourbon chicken. I'd been looking forward to a sandwich all week. I get home, make my sandwich, take a bite, and realize that the darn girl gave me regular chicken instead of bourbon chicken. Really, lady? Really?
4. Creepy guy at the post office. Here's the deal. When you're all dirty (like need to take a shower or three), smell like liquor at 10 in the morning, and try to pick up a girl dressed in a suit, the line "Hey baby let me see if there's a ring on that finger" is not going to work. You may get to see a finger allright, but it's not going to be the one you're asking about.
5. My garage. Well, this one is interesting. See, I have this freakishly narrow garage. I only park there in the winter because I hate to scrape ice off my windows. You have to come at the garage at just the right angle and apparently between last March and now, I forgot the correct angle. I now have a scrape of white paint down the side of my car to prove it. And a damaged garage frame. When people see my car, usually I could say, "You should see the other guy" as a witty comeback. This time, I was the other guy too. Epic fail.

Re #4 ... Gee whiz ... I came all that way, made sure I was at the post office at just the right time, and THIS is the thanks I get? Harumph, I say! Harumph!!
No worries on the garage. Your's looks better than mine does. You know I haven't used my garage in 2 years, because I can't seem to back out of it either :) Those dang garages! You should have kicked the post office guy in the balls and said I just wanted to make sure it was a drunken man hitting on me! Agree on the gym front all gyms should have sports on their TV's at all times!

So between the picture of your car and LOKG's comment above, my mind flashed back to college. Remember when LOKG hit the gate at the apartment complex with her truck? I think there was a little paint exchange there too. Ah, the good ol' days.
Your poor car!! Can it be buffed out or is it too bad for that?
And that is so dumb that the gym doesn't have football on TV during FOOTBALL SEASON. Football season trumps Lifetime movie season (which lasts year round).
As for Notre Dame bashers, haters gonna hate. (I know - what a street thing for someone as street as me to say.) That doesn't change a current 10-0 record or all the awesomeness that comes with Notre Dame, winning season or otherwise.

Oh no! Your poor car! And I understand the whole drunk at 10am guy hitting on you...I work in an outpaitent drug and alcohol treatment facility, so I often get stares and questions all day long from drunk guys. Nothing like feeling like a piece of meat!
That creepy guy issue is seriously very creepy.
I can understand the plight with cheap men.
