It's Friday... That's All I Got

Random Musings... What is This World Coming To?

I paid almost $30.00 to fill up my little 12 gallon tank sedan this morning -- ridiculous. When I began driving 8 years ago, I could fill up my tank (different 12-gallon tank sedan) for $10.00. Sigh. Honestly, I'll stay home from work if it's better for the environment.

I paid only $0.89 for my large coffee at the gas station this morning -- awesome. I wonder if I can fuel my car on that? But then I was practically accosted as I attempted to put sweetener in it. Some guy grabbed my arm and told me I was going to die if I used sweeteners in my coffee. I patiently tried to explain that not only is it perfectly ok to use sweeteners, that he is a wacko and if he touched me again I may have to retaliate. Who needs this insanity at 8:00am? Reminds me of the preacher who often stood outside the student center at UGA when I was in school. As people would walk by, he would accuse anyone that looked his way of being fornicators, on drugs, going to hell, etc. Ridiculous. I just want my coffee.

I paid about $30 for a new scale a couple months ago. I went on vacation a couple weeks ago, only to come back and apparently have gained about 10 pounds, says the new scale. As any girl would understand... I freaked out. Big time. So I've spent the past 10 days practically living at the gym and mainlining water and diet soft drinks. I weighed myself this morning and in some wacky miraculous way I've managed to drop 5. It's really not possible that I could have lost 5 lbs in 10 days. I certainly haven't been starving myself. Thus I conclude that I hadn't really gained that much weight in the first place.

Seriously... I think the money would have been better spent on gas. Scales are equally as ridiculous as gas station wackos. Neither can be trusted and I want to toss both of them out the nearest window.

That's all I got... it is Friday after all.
