Do you know how to drive?

I swear people in washington don't know how to drive at all, either they didnt' read their driver's manual, or they just can't read, I'm not sure which, but common! it's not that hard! When there's a stop sign you stop, when there isn't, you don't. When you're making an unprotected left turn you yeild to on coming trafic. When you're merging use your tunring signal, and if someone is trying to merge you let them in. And common courtesy when someone lets you in give them a thank you wave. Also when you're driving in the country or anywhere that there is no speed limit posted (in oregon) the speed limit is 55. that means when you see those little "end 45 zone" sings it means the speed limit is now 55! I don't know why the hell people don't know this, either they're just idiots, or they're just dumb asses. oh and by the way, if you're going more than 10 mph under the speed limit you can get a ticket, becaues you're holding up traffic. Another thing, when you're driving on the highway, left lane is acctually for passing, so if you happen to be driving in it, and someone is coming up fast behind you, move over please. And if you're going to drive there, dont' drive 55. It's pretty simple acctually, and if you don't know these rules or any others, you should either look them up, or stop driving because you're stupid. have a nice day, and wear your seat belt.

Joke's on me

So I went to go give blood yesterday, thinking, this will be great, help people out, save some lives, and get a nice little arm wrap. Well I was in for a suprise. Everythign went well until I sat down in my chair to give blood. The first thing the guy asks me is, " are you nervous?" and to tell the truth I was a little aprehensive, because I mean I'm about to have a needle stuck into my arm, and some of my blood sucked out... kinda freaky if you ask me, but welll worth it. So I relplied, "no not really." But then to my suprise he says, "Well good cuz I am." and when I said "what!?" he didn't say just kidding, instead he goes, "don't worry you can look away, cuz I will, that way you don't have to see my hand all shaky shaky." and I'm kind of starting to get nervous, cuz he still hasn't broken his face, or said just kidding. Then he continues on to say," don't worry I haven't missed yet today... I don't think." then he said just kidding, but I don'tknow if that was to just the not having missed or to the whole thing, cuz once he stuck me he missed! he missed! AHH WHAT A BAD JOKE! then instead of taking the needle out and re-sticking it he was like well i'm going ot try to move it, and OH MY GOSH! it hurt so bad. And they brought another nurse over to try and move it, and after they moved it they were getting some blood but not enough, then I started to faint, so they laid me back, and then decided that I couldn't give blood, and took out the needle. I felt bad, because between the time they were moving the needle around and me starting to faint my eyes were watering and tearing up ( I know I'm a wimp) but then the guy felt really bad, and was like, I'm sorry. And really it was jut an accident, so he shouldnt' feel bad. But the sad part is that they acctually got enough blood that they said they wanted me to wait the two months to dontate again, so unfortunantly I just have to wait, and can't retry. Anyways, don't let this story scare you away from giving blood, it's a really great thing to do, and helps a lot of people , this just happened to be a bad experience.

I'm sorry

Have you ever hurt someone? I'm sure you have, even if it wasn't intentionally, or maybe you didn't even know you were hurting them, but you probablly have. What a crappy feeling it is. I hate letting people down, or hurting them, and I find that no matter how hard I try to avoid it, it always ends up happening. It is inevitable. I don't mean to, I think it's just that sometimes people get a different vibe or impression from me than I mean to portray. I don't know how to change the fact that I seem to be sending the wrong signals, but I guess I should try. I mean sometimes I'm just so blunt about things it can come off as shrewed, but that's usually with people that I don't really care what they think. So then when I'm faced with a sittuation that to me is black and white, but to those I care about are grey I don't know how to let them know we're not on the same wave length. I guess what I'm saying is that maybe I'm not what you think I am.

I take it back!

I undo everything that I said, and am replacing it with what you deserve: nothing. If that's what you're going to give, then that's what you're going to get. I'm tired of giving and not getting, so it's going to end. I'm tired of your fair weather attitude, and you're negative out look. I won't let you bring me down anymore. I won't let you use me any more. I hope you're happy with where you've gotten yourself, this is what you wanted isn't it? When skies are fair, you're always there, but at the first sign of rain you're no where to be found. Net time the sun comes out, don't expect me to be around, because I'm moving on, I'm tired of this crap, I hope you find someone who will put up with it. At some point I hope you realize what a crappy person you've been, and I hope you feel bad. At some point you will be alone with no one left to turn to. At some point you will grow up and learn there is more to life than being popular, or being seen with the right people. At some point you will look back and see how you waisted your time. I hope you find someone who touches you, and makes you see what an empty life you've been living. I hope at some point you wake up and realize that the hardest thing to hear is the truth. I hope at some point you open your mind, and look around and find yourself. Not somone to copy. Not someone who will decide how you should be; but yourself. Until then you will be just an empty shell walking from friend to friend, latching on then assimalating their personality, calling it your own. I hope you're happy.
