Dear obnoxious, self-important parent,

Why were you the first call I had upon entering the pharmacy this morning?

Why would I lie to you? Do you think I enjoy talking to you so much that I want you to keep calling me?

Of course the nurse told you that she called in the prescription, she wanted to get you off the phone.

When I told you that it had not been called in, why did you have to get all sassy and tell me to look a little harder?

When you called back 2 minutes later, I had to hang up on our voicemail to answer your call. Why did you then tell me that you know the nurse called it in earlier, because she said she did?

Why when I put you on hold (to check the aforementioned voicemail) did you act like an ass when I told you that the nurse had just left the message?

The nurse forgot to call it in, give her a break. You were not the only person she had to take care of on a Friday. I was not lying to you, she really did just leave the message. Probably while you were bitching at me the second I walked in the door. Would you like the intern to check the time stamp?

Finally, If this prescription was so freaking important, why did you not pick it up until 7pm????????

Mayor Outlaw Josey Wales?

Tomorrow is election day, I might be one of the only people going to vote. Well, other than the husbear, but that’s because I am driving his car while mine is in the shop. He has no choice!

They are predicting a 9.5% voter turn out. Come on! I know it’s not a “big important election,” but 9.5%? In a city this size? That’s shameful.

Mayor White is up for election again. He is running against Amanda, a socialist meat-packing plant worker & wrestling promoter Outlaw Josey Wales IV. (Seriously, he LEGALLY changed his name to that.)

Amanda, the socialist meat-packer, (love that) wants to immediately end the Iraq war. Hmm…I think that might be a bit out of the scope of the mayor of a city. I am just going to dismiss Amanda now.

OJW IV wants to increase wages from HPD and somehow ensure the “long-term viability of their pension system.” Okay, I’m with you so far…
He also wants to make it illegal to drive while holding a cell phone, four or more motorists in a car to drive in the HOV lanes (clown cars?)
He also wants to extend rail lines along major freeways from downtown to the city limits.

Let’s see, I like the wage increase/pension support in theory, but how is he planning on doing it? Note to OJW IV -get a website jackass!
Cell phones? Like it because some idiot ran into me while on her phone, hate it because I am on mine in the car all the time.
HOV lane um…how would that work really? Wouldn’t that just make the traffic problem on 45, 59 & I-10 worse?
Rail lines, I am all over that, especially since it would piss off Tom DeLay! (Though he’s no longer in Sugarland, it would make me happy just the same) Let’s replace the HOV lanes with light rail!

That said, (thanks BB!) I am going to vote for Bill White. I like him, he is stable and intelligent. When he runs for statewide office (I am sure he will) when his term is up in 2009, I will most likely vote for him then. I think he would be an refreshing change after Governor Goodhair.

Can you imagine the headlines? “From Mayer Bill White to Mayor Outlaw Josey Wales…WTF is wrong with Houston?”

As it was in the beginning…

I make fun of people with blogs.
I ask all the time “Who the fuck cares what you have to say?”
…and now I’m starting one.

I have recently realized that I have lost my filter, that thing that lets you get through the day without insulting someone.
I find myself muttering when people say asinine things. Rolling my eyes at professors and basically being a smart ass.
I need my filter back…
