  • AC is delicious, other people suck!

    Today I went to school to return my laptop and fill out my exit papers.  I am now "cleared" for graduation.  On the way out, I see a traffic "not"-cop writing me a ticket.  I yell at him that it's like 2 minutes over (really it was) and he just keeps on writing.  I call him a tinpot martinet and continue yelling that of course he's not stopping as he's writing his own mealticket.  He quietly writes the rest of the ticket and checks my plate sticker for good measure.  At least he's a professional, I'm probably not even the worst he'll see today.  What gets me is that he obviously stuck around while the clock ran out to give me this ticket.

    On to the dealership to pick up Rea and Mochi.  I end up walking Mochi around in the parking lot of the park next door only to be told that dogs aren't allowed in the park, not even in the parking lot.  Why is it that people in the suburbs are so pet-unfriendly?  I feel like I'm put upon whenever I take Mochi for a walk, that people are watching me suspiciously, I'm responsible, I always have bags for Mochi, and these villages have to get over their spotless self image of themselves.

    On the way back home, Mochi lay in his travel bed enjoying the AC.
