Whatchoo Bloggin' About Willus?

Aw hell, I had this whole thing planned out at work today and now I can't remember any of it. They should make waterproof laptops for dishwashing bloggers. Or I suppose I could write it down the old fashioned way. I don't know it seems like hooking a horse up to your car when it breaks down or something like that. Anyway, I only have two days left at that job and every moment I'm there is agony. Obviously that's why I'm leaving but people keep trying to comfort me by saying that I only have a few days left. That doesn't help. It just makes it worse. It's like when you have to pee really bad in the car and you are racing to get home. You can always hold it just long enough to get in the door but the last moments are absolute torture. And god help you can't find the key or your zipper gets stuck. The funny thing is that if your house had been further away you would have been able to hold it in the car, but once you stop and get out, you can almost hear your bladder ticking. The last two days of work in a crappy job that you are quitting are equivalent to this time out of the car, only drawn out for 16 hours.

Wow. That's top quality blogging; sarcasm, dry wit, complaining, exaggeration... What would the 21st century be without this medium. The irony, however, of a blog that whines about blogging and whiney bloggers is far too irony-ey for me, so we're going to can that act from now on and move on to more enlightened, idiotic, humorous, and lame topics: today's shall be decided by me right now, at random... uh... hold on...

Rolling Luggage- n. Rolling luggage is a terrible invention because it allows people to bring more luggage than they need, which used to be a quantity determined by how much a person can safely carry. If you couldn't carry it, you didn't need it. Part of the challenge of traveling should be choosing only the essential items to bring to with you. Now people are bringing their entire wardrobe on a dolly and it's not safe. And let's get something straight right now, if your bag is on wheels because it is too heavy to lift, let alone wrestle it into the overhead compartment, IT IS NOT A CARRY ON BAG!! I don't care what they tell you at check in. I understand the need for the elderly and the handicapped to have this kind of product but it there should be a new law from the TSA rather than this liquid ban crap: Bags on wheels permitted only for passengers on wheels. You should have to buy them in the same store where you get the Rascal. In the hands of the lazy and stupid, rolling bags can turn any average plane or train overhead bin into a deathtrap.


I think I've made my point.

Well, now I'm mad. Only two blogs in, and I'm already angry. I proudly bring my entire wardrobe wherever I go, and my entire shoe wardrobe as well, which, I assure you, is nothing to scoff at. I require all of this to travel, because one must always be prepared for anything, from ballrooms to grizzly bears. And I opt for wheels in support of geniuses everywhere, as a show of solidarity. After all, wasn't the inventor of the wheel the very first modern genius?
