Ugh, so frustrated. I swear, Michele has to be the dumbest human being on the planet next to my ex-stepmother. I’m trying to figure out a project with her and nothing she is giving me is useful or what I’m asking for. There’s like, a huge communication barrier between the two of us. I’m getting my boss involved because she seems to be the only person that can pound anything through Michele’s thick skull. Nice now or not, she’s an idiot.

I have 2 bumper stickers I ordered from evolvefish.com. Only problem is that I’m pretty much out of space on the car windows. I don’t like to overload my windows to the point of looking tacky. I have one spot left but it’s saved for a spiffy NIN sticker once I find one that I want. Hubby and I decided we’d put these last two stickers on the bumper and call it at that. I went out, cleaned and dried the bumper but then I couldn’t do it, our bumper is painted and do you know how many times I’ve heard “don’t put stickers on a painted bumper”. That message always came loud and clear from my father, who owns an auto body shop. It’s just a Hyundai Accent but it’s our only car. I should probably just suck it up but I’m a wuss. 🙂 The bumper stickers are cute though one is “Jesus Saves – By shopping wisely and using double coupons”. The other is “There is no sin greater than ignorance” – Rudyard Kipling.

I’ve been doing a lot of driving lately. When we drive to work we use the HOV lane. You have to have 2 or more people to drive legally in the HOV lane. Well, this morning I happened to notice there was someone on my ass in the HOV lane. I also happened to notice that she was the only person in her car. She was a complete bitch and even tried to pass me at one point, which is illegal in the HOV lane. A lot of people try to do it by using the onramps, which is what she tried to do. I casually kept her from passing me, which was strangely fun and satisfying. 🙂 Haha, Biotch!! It’s not like I was going all that slow or anything. My general rule is no more than 10-15 miles over the speed limit, which is 65mph. When she got behind me I was going 80mph. I hate people like her who get over there to try to get around other people illegally. That’s not why that lane is there, it’s there for commuters and it’s not uncommon to end up behind a city bus going 55mph. The HOV lane is not a special speed past everyone lane.

It’s people like this that the cops should be looking out for and pulling over but what are our Connecticut police officers doing these days??? Setting up checkpoints and pulling people over for not having a front license plate on their car. Apparently they’ve started enforcing that law, if you’re caught without one here pretty soon they’ll suspend your registration until you correct the problem. *rolls eyes* I KNOW there are better things they could be doing with their time. Luckily our front plate was stored down in the basement.

Hubby found my Downward Spiral CD. Yay!! I also ordered 2 more NIN cd’s that I didn’t have, on Amazon. I love the buy used feature on Amazon now. I scored two Cd’s in Like New condition, one for $4.77 and the other for $7.49. I also got a VHS copy of Rain Man for $2.72. I’ve always loved that movie and my hubby can do one hell of a Rain Man impersonation. 🙂

Sophie is definitely pregnant. You can’t look at her and tell me she’s not. It’s pretty obvious now. Her little belly is big and her nipples have gotten bigger and pinker. She’s probably in her last 2 weeks or so now. She’s so cute, she tries to play and her belly is starting to get in the way. I’m looking forward to raising kittens. It’s been many years since I’ve had the opportunity to raise newborn kittens. I couldn’t be more excited. I’ve been doing my homework to make sure I’m well prepared for the birth. What to do if anything goes wrong and whatnot.

Anyway, I should probably get to my comics so I can get to work. Yay for tomorrow being Friday!
