Just read that a freeway traffic sign I'd driven under many times was put up by a civilian and CalTrans left it up for over nine years, because apparently people
did
need to know which way to go to get to the 5 freeway from downtown. Now it's gone...they've put up a whole new sign, but they've included the guerrilla information this time.
I'd have to be caught having gay sex, in public, a number of times, for me to be able to cause a same-sex kerfuffle in my family. When they say it's 10% of the population--if you're not related to any gay people it's because I'm related to all of them. All the black female ones, anyway, and at least one of the males.
Which reminds me, I'm not sure if I ever told meara that the cousin I wanted to set her up with is a man now. If that's a problem, I have others, but the most butch of them is unstable and evil (she once broke up with a guy who was in the ICU after a suicide attempt over him. she later married him and then left him months after the lavish wedding. she also kicked her grandmother down a flight of stairs). But I can find others. Her little sister is kinda butch and quite cute.
eta: Who are these guys, or what show are they from: [link] and [link]
I just noticed that a neighbor (whose truck I recognize) is parking in my parking space, that I am paying for even though I no longer own a car. We sent a message to the building and Craigslist months ago that the space was available for rent, but had no takers. I'm going to forgive it for one night, and after that, is it wrong to send a message to the building that if you park there without paying me, you are going to be SO TOWED, asshole? Minus the asshole?
Hmmmm....I wonder if you could work out a trade with the truck owner? Maybe let him or her park there in exchange for getting rides when you need them (I am thinking for when you need to haul something big, etc)? Could be a win-win since you can't find a renter? Maybe the neighbor is low on cash but could barter?
I don't really need a ride to haul anything. For me, it's the principle of the thing. The space was offered to rent at cost. Nobody wanted it, therefore nobody gets to park there without my permission, goddamnit. What if I'd expected visitors? What if I'd rented it out to someone else?
Oh no, for sure don't let him or her do it again without your permission, that's not what I was saying. I was just thinking you should get some value out of the space, even if you can't rent it for money. And I do think it's rude to park in your space without your permission.
Sorry, I'm just grumpy. I didn't mean to take it out on you!
It's Saturday, I'm at work, and it's still dark out. Crap.
They brought breakfast, except that they're Au Bon Pain bagels, not actual bagels. Bagels shouldn't be mushy!
Last night was my office Xmas party, which I left relatively early because I was so tired. This morning I have a sore throat. I hope this isn't the beginning of the ick.
shrift, if you're paying for the spot you get to decide whether someone parks in it for free, for money, for cases of frenet, or for sexual favors. Or you can leave it as a shiny, empty space--maybe put a planter in it. If you give the neighbor a warning before towing their ass, I'd say you're going out of your way to be nice and kudos to you.
