Normally we get our deliveries between 12-2pm at the store. Our official window is 10:30-2:30. When our truck hadn't arrived by 3:20, I called to find out what was up. It was super freakin' hot and I was concerned that something had happened to the driver.
The guy in charge used his walkie talkie phone to call up the driver. He didn't put me on hold so it ended up I could hear the driver's responses. Scott called and asked where he was. The driver told him and asked who wanted to know. Scott told him I did then the driver responded with a rather snitty, "tell her to not get her panties in a bunch..."
True poetry isn't it.
Scott then said "you just told her, she can hear you." Not surprisingly, there was no response on the other end of the walkie talkie. I started laughing and told Scott the driver was a wanker. Scott gave me the okay to call the driver a wanker when he arrived. Instead I just told the driver he could rest easy knowing I had successfully removed my underwear from up my butt.
Should mention that the driver was one of our fill in guys and the other couple of times he's come here he's been a complete dick then as well. Oh, and he didn't get there till 4:15pm.
THINGS I LOATHE:
gold lame (sorry, can't put the accent on the e)--don't care if it's on a shoe, a purse, or a shirt--all of which I witnessed yesterday
flip flops--esp. on the feet of grown men-- step up and buy a real sandal please-- and teen age girls
kids under the age of 12 with cell phones
actually, cell phones in general
beat poetry cafe announcements
standing still and sweating--I need to move to Alaska.
MOVIE TRAILERS TO CHECK OUT:
Rocket Science--feels like Wes Anderson
The Darjeeling Limited--is Wes Anderson
The Brave One--Jodie Foster as vigilante
National Treasure: Book Of Secrets--winter cheese whiz with cute sidekick action

I hear you about the flip flops. I can't stand hearing people slide their feet when they walk. Why can't people pick up their GD FEET when they walk? How lazy can a person be, for crying out loud?
Ooooooohhh, you should have told Dick Driver that, since you were wearing a THONG, your underwear placement was spot on today. What an ass. No pun intended. I'm cracking myself up over here. SHEESH, I can't stop the lame butt jokes!
I really love reading your blog. You are hilarious! I also enjoy the movie reviews. I am waiting for Once to be available on Netflix as we never get good indie or foreign films in my area. Keep up the writing and I'll buy your published book someday soon I'm sure.
