I am going to scream.

I am going to scream.
Monday's SUCK.
First, my alarm didn't go off. Not just didn't make enough noise to poke a hole in my dreams, but flat out never went off. I woke up a half hour late, looked at my alarm, it was set for the right time. Even a.m. instead of p.m. But it had never gone off. WTF?
Second, I get to campus after dealing with some asshole on the road who was making my trigger finger itch, and there are those ugly damn election signs all over the place. EVERYWHERE! I hope you little "vote for me!" idiots find yourselves stuck behind the same driver I was this morning.
Third, I wander into Churchhills for my morning caffeine fix, and they didn't brew my favorite blend this morning. I nearly crawled across the counter, but then realized I'm too damn old to get up there unassisted.
Fourth, I post a note to BearNotes screaming and sniveling like a Kerry liberal about election signs posing a threat to the itty bitty wheels on my walker. Why they don't make walkers more stable, I don't know. Maybe it's a conspiracy, the walker manufacturers want to kill off us elderly people. So anyway, the damn thing posted THREE times.
Fifth, I go to print a 26 page PDF document, and the fucking thing prints thumbnails of every page. So I have like 10 pages of PDFs shrunk down onto one page. How the hell do you highlight THAT? With a tattoo needle?
So here I sit, having finally coaxed my PDF files out of the printer, drinking coffee that's better than the Cheek machine but still not what I was looking forward too, wondering if maybe I should have shot that prick in his truck anyway.
Once again, just for those of you who missed the point, MONDAYS SUCK.
Oh, and I'm offering a free BearNotes.com t-shirt. Check the classifieds for details.
Oh oh, Paula, Sam, my apologies for the triple post. Would one of you mind deleting two of the three?
Thanks.

While I'm screaming and carrying on, do we live in America or the UK?
Do you drive on the left side of the road or the right? The right? Good. Then why do you walk in the opposite set of doors everywhere you go? Why do you walk up the opposite side of the stairs in Plaster? WTF is wrong with you people? Has common sense disappeared?
GET THE HELL OUT OF MY WAY!

And one more thing ...
When you're in the library, PUT YOUR FUCKING CELL PHONE ON VIBRATE!
Four phones have rang, at full volume with irritating tones, in the past minute. What the fuck is wrong with you people? It's a library, shut the hell up. Are you that deaf that you can't hear your phone ring unless it's causing windows to vibrate?
Off to grumble and be in a bad mood some more ... this is definately a fucking Monday.
P.S. Paula, that t-shirt looks cute on you.
