The one where a dog impeded his ability to arrive on time...

I blog to you from the hospital...

so i'm driving down the highway at a slow pace of about 85, headin downtown to get to the office, when all of a sudden i see a sea of red lights up over the hill, and the entire lot of traffic in front of me stops. I quick slam on my breaks, but to no avail, i slam into the car in front of me. Not too fast, but i did set off the airbags, and i broke my nose. Right now, i'm sitting in the lobby of the hospital, where they have an internet terminal for people waiting. I think i'm going to go to work tomorrow, but that's only if it stops bleeding.

Although there is more to tell about the road today - before the accident, there was a dog on the other side of the highway, that was stopping traffic on that side - rather, they were moving at a dog's pace, as he was in the fast lane. SO... of course - MY side of the highway had to slow down, almost to a stop, to watch the spectacle. I can freaking understand if you slow down a little bit to see what's going on - but ya know what, don't roll along at the same speed the dog is walking in the opposite direction. It's not smart, becaue if you slow down so much, people behind you may slam into the car behind it. Kind of like i did.

but didn't do - sorry, that was a joke. i dunno if you fell for it, but i would have - i'm gullable.

today - i got repremanded at work - they had been checking up on people using the internet, and they found the sites i'd been going to. They obviously saw they were too bad for me to visit whilest i'm scanning (THE most boring job on the planet) in order to keep myself awake. they were the following:

www.slashdot.org
www.gmail.com
www.google.com
www.dictionary.com (to look up words on documents i didn't know)
news.google.com
www.weather.com
www.rochesterdandc.com


Obviously, just about porno.

screw them - one thing that i didn't like, was they saw one email i sent my mom. i sent it from my gmail account, a web based email account. were they watching my computer (and also my passwords and such?) wow, bunch of crazy mo fo's.

I've also gone on a mission not to drink much pop. I'm not going to say i'm giving it up for good, it's just that i really need to cut back. It's not good for you, dag namit, and so i shouldn't do it.

go go gadget publish post!

wow, that was almost as good as the time you hydroplaned off the road and smashed into a tree.

I almost fell for it, and it sounds like they need to ctfo, now if they had seen "images.google" then there might have been a glimmer of hope for them to make a legit case against you, but since you're no longer a middle schooler it wouldn't hold up very well...

anyway you should file a complaint for discrimination, they're discriminating you for being a geek and trying to stay current informed
