It's totally acceptable to explain the stomach using computer metaphors, right?

Absolutely.

Home again, home again, tra la la. And the jackass with the Volvo (who parked too close to my driveway for most of last week and made it very difficult to get in and out) has blocked my driveway completely.

I left a note on the windshield: THIS IS A DRIVEWAY. YOU WILL BE TOWED.

Next time, I will call a towtruck, I think. Some days I cannot afford to be trapped inside my driveway, and it's not my fault this jackass is too lazy to park 100 yards further down the road, where there's plenty of parking.

Jackass is parked illegally. Ass 'em in the ear.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I get such anxiety with trips now. I hate it. I am gonna go pack and double check everything. Not sure why I think I have to get everything done in my house tonight (take down Christmas tree, clean all the things, shred bags of paper) when that stuff doesn't get done on a regular and nobody is going to be staying at my house. STUPID BRAIN.

Yeah, I don't know who this guy is. I assume it's a guy -- it's always guys, so far as I can tell. So I'll cut him slack this one time.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Last weekend I was in the driveway, keys in hand, walking towards the car, when someone pulled up and blocked the driveway.

Made him move. At least he was still there, so I could mock him, I mean ask him nicely to move.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Last weekend I was in the driveway, keys in hand, walking towards the car, when someone pulled up and blocked the driveway.

A couple of weeks ago I went to leave the house and when I walked off the porch, there was a dude parked IN MY DRIVEWAY. Fortunately he was sitting in his car, so I asked him to move. (To give him the benefit of the doubt, he *may* have thought our driveway was for the neighbor who is on the other side of the driveway [that house doesn't have a driveway, so I can see someone making that assumption].)

I've had cars towed when they block the driveway.
