Feel the Sensation

I'm at school and wanted to get on here and whine about dump trucks. BUT, as I was coming to the dashboard page, the computer just went right to my blog. HOW DID IT KNOW WHO I WAS???? That's what I want to know. I never logged in. This is creepy.



So about dump trucks. In Cayce, on my drive to work each morning, I get behind a dump truck. We have this pesky yield sign/stop sign situation to pull through before we can really get on the big road and these dump trucks are so freakin slow. I timed it today. It took this dump truck 5 minutes to get through these two signs. And when I say dump truck, perhaps you are picturing an 18-wheeler. OH NO! They really are dump trucks. Picture a Tonka truck that is old and rusty. I swear I never saw these until I moved to Cayce, and they're out in high numbers. Where are they going I wonder. But you know how they sound, grinding their gears just trying to lurch forward. I know it's tough to drive such a ridiculous sized truck (big enough to need a ladder to get in the driver's seat), but it just amazes me at how poorly they're designed or something. I want them to go faster. I can't handle the sound they make choking on themselves through the yield sign which for them is a big stop sign. Ugh. It makes me cringe like crying children and alarms do.



I just ate goldfish and a york peppermint pattie. They spell patty with "ie" is that right??

  1. I have a problem with any large vehicle of any kind being in front of me at any time whatsoever. You know what I think? What I really think about them? They need separate roads. That's right, an entirely separate highway system just for big slow trucks. That's feasible right? Maybe I should put in a call to the United States Transportation Authority. And I think the "pattie" thing is like "Ludicris." It's not right, it's just the way they do it.
