Well looky at you.

You're so special you're getting two posts tonight.

This might be more of a bitch session, just fyi.

I have to say that Jersey drivers are some of the craziest I've seen. This is not made better by the lack of cops on the road. Also the cops might be worse drivers than the normal Jersey drivers. This is also not made better by the fact that the lanes are super narrow (like just a car's width wide) and people don't know how to a) stay in their lanes and b) stay in their own lane when they turn corners. If you visit please plan on doing at least 15 over the speed limit. You might get run over otherwise. Also? (and this is to their credit) They honestly don't give a rats ass on what you think of how terribly they drive, they don't look at you and they don't make apologies. This is better at least for me because it helps me not get angry and let it go because there's nothing to react to. Also, they are so set in what they're doing (even if it's wrong) you can't argue with them.

Actual story.
I was going to the grocery store the other night and as I was walking up to the store I heard a guy in his car yell out the window at a pedestrian walking in front of his car to get to the parking lot "What are you? A fucking moron?" While yes it is offensive it honestly makes me crack up because it's such an East Coast thing. The answer to this rhetorical question was complete silence, which is again, so East Coast. It reminds me to brush it off on a daily basis. On the West Coast it feels so personal when anything rude happens but out here it is what it is and you get over it, it's not personal.

Also, I'm homesick for stuff that I love. I'm slowly finding the products that I had at my fingertips on the West Coast. Nothing is more frustrating than going to a store and not finding 3/4 of what you're looking for. I'm trying, lets just say that.

Okay now you have to wait for a little while.

Night.
