I feel like saying... hi! Been a while since I've stopped in. Hope all the old regulars are doing well.

There have been many women arrested for driving. One example from Wikipedia (disclaimer: everything on the Internet must be taken with a grain of salt):
Quote:
On 6 Nov 1990, about 20 Saudi women illegally drove the streets of Riyadh in protest of the ban on Saudi women drivers. The women were eventually surrounded by curious onlookers and stopped by traffic cops, who took them into custody. They were released after their male guardians signed statements that they would not drive again, but thousands of leaflets with their names and their husbands' names – with "whores" and "pimps" scrawled next to them – circulated around the city.

Women's Rights in Saudi Arabia
And this is why I won't be taking a trip to Saudi Arabia any time soon.

My resting bitch face tonight puts McKayla Maroney to shame. These new coworkers of mine.... they have certainly found a way under my skin quickly. :-|

You know what? I'm really happy. Like, the kind of happy where you hula hoop in your living room to Taylor Swift. Then do choreography to old Britney Spears videos and laugh at how cool you thought you were doing this at 13. I'm that kind of happy. No reason in particular other than feeling incredibly, wonderfully, and unbelievably blessed to be where I am to be headed where I'm going. I'm not gonna question it because a lot of bad has happened in the last 6 months but things are pretty freakin' awesome right this second.

Yes. I'm talking about the recent activists arrested for driving who were supposed to be sent to "terrorist court". I think they were released. One of the activists had her photo on the Internet and was often discussed along with that loony Saudi Arabian historian.

The snow started exactly the time meteorologists predicted.

Ugh...I hate snow, especially as it may prevent me from chartering OPA's second inactive chapter to ever be re-chartered! Playing it by ear...but it's already starting to stick outside

Feel like saying this - this is what I am listening to. Not a popular song. I wonder who can guess this (no cheating. do not google)
Cause in this life you must find something to live for
Cause when the darkness comes a callin'
You'll go back to where you were before
Cause this life is as
Fragile as a dream, and
Nothing’s ever really
As it seems...

Bad commute to work this morning -- Michigan rant.
To Michigan drivers (most folks born and raised here): First off, you jokers are by far the worst drivers I have ever come across in my entire years of driving, and I've driven in several states. You know that little arrow? -- you know, the green one. THAT MEANS GO! You have the right-of-way!
I also wish I had a dollar every time I saw you folks drive down the wrong side of the road. I think I could retire. You know that middle lane with the yellow line on both sides? When you turn left, you move over to that lane to make the left turn. You jokers won't do it for whatever reason. Whenever you turn left in an intersection, you drive out towards the middle and then turn left when you're allowed. You folks won't do it. I understand, you don't know. That's what it is. And the slow starts... Baaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!
I'm also reading that Michigan has one of the highest insurance rates in the country. I'm not surprised -- can't drive with no auto insurance.
I want a bike, but I'm scared to get one in this state. These folks will hit a joker on a bike in a minute. Idiots.
End rant.
Back to work.

^^^ I'm at the Secretary of State's office (DMV to non-Michiganders) now. Judging from the conversations I've been overhearing during my half hour (so far) wait, I'm not surprised how some of these people drive once they get back in their cars....
