So I decided to fly the day before Thanksgiving. The busiest travel day of the year. I’d never done this before but was prepared for anything due to the horror stories that get passed around. My flight was at 11:10AM so I arrived at Logan at about 8:30. You always have to plan for any zany delays just when getting to Logan. After having a nightmare time in July (not the busiest travel day of the year either) I decided to allow for at least an hour for baggage check in, and at least an hour for security*. So after arriving at the terminal drop of point at 8:30 I headed in to face my doom. A doom that consisted of being at my gate in 15 minutes. WTF?
OK here’s what I’ve since come up with; terrorists have been planting stories using the US media to instill fear in a fiendish plot to scare us from traveling during the Thanksgiving holiday. The reasons for this are twofold; 1) They’re dicks and just like being mean, and 2) if we can’t travel then that’s less people at planned destinations to consume pumpkin pie. THAT’S RIGHT! They’re after my pumpkin pie. The less people there are to eat it the more they think will be left for them. And let me tell you right now, the last place you want to be, you slimy piece of shit, is between me and pumpkin pie.
But I did travel, and I did get pumpkin pie** so screw you terrorists. You have not won this day/pie! And I say to all my fellow Americans, and to a lesser extent my Canadian half brothers and sisters, if we do not eat pie then the terrorists have already won.
*this would go faster if the retards in front of me would take of their fucking shoes before getting up to the conveyor belt to put them in the tray. RETARDS!
**pumpkin chiffon pie actually. Yeah it sounds gay but was damn good.

Powder to the people
Oh My God! OH MY GOD!!! Ok heart slow down…slow down… *phew* So on the drive in today a few random flakes were falling and it gave me that calm and serene feeling that the first snow fall of each year does. I was driving to work and was quite pleased, though I knew it was too warm to accumulate and that it probably wouldn’t pick up in intensity, but it was just nice to see a few flakes.
Upon getting to work I looked out the window and it was full on snowing. Dreams of a fun ride home* and parking lot zaniness at night were zipping through my head. It started sticking. Cars and grass were first. Then slowly the parking lot at work started getting slightly covered. Will this be a night to remember? I hope the snow holds out.
*You should know that I love winter, and the snow. As someone that hasn’t been able to snowboard for 5 years due to a knee surgery I’m ecstatic to get out there again this year after getting the OK from my doctor. I also participate in ice racing with the local BMW club (www.bmwcca.org). They plow a rally course on top of Newfound Lake in New Hampshire. It usually starts late January when the lake is frozen enough. So we basically drive our cars one at a time on this twisty frozen race course and it’s so much fun. Especially now that I have my new car I can’t wait to get out there.

Volumizing (not hair)
So at work I sit near someone that eats with their mouth open. I cannot stand to hear people eat. It’s a huge pet peeve of mine. I can hear every chew…each finger lick…and every lip smack. It’s maddening!
I turned the ol’ iPod up to 25% volume to drown it out but to no avail. This was gonna take some serious musicing* to overcome. Bad Brains and 60% volume to the rescue and I can safely enjoy my Hostess Cup Cakes** in peace. *phew*
I should say that the iPod was a gift that I never new I wanted until I had it. Aside from pleasing me on its own it has saved countless lives…from me. I just couldn’t live without it.
*Shut up. It’s a word now.
** Yeah I know they’re not really cup cakes. I hadn’t had them since I was 12 and they were in the front of the row in the vending machine. I decided to take a culinary trip down memory lane. Yup, still tasty.
