Beeping other than when about to be hit by another vehicle seems wrong to me. Maybe if hanging at a green light arrow too long, because they don't last forever. Otherwise, just rude.

I am still kind of mad at the person who honked at me at a gas station when I did not immediately pull away from the pump (I was noting my odometer reading before driving away because I feel like I need to keep those records even though I don't actually ever look at them later for any reason). This was before Covid, so, years ago.

Consider my response to the lady from this morning retroactive to that person, too, on your behalf.

Laura -- so totally agreed. And there are ways to "gently" honk, too, for the green arrow sitch, say.

I'm not going to try a drastic change to my diet because I don't think I could handle that living with 2 people who make sure there are snacks all the time and who cook more on the heavy side. Instead my first goal is going to increase veggies and fruits and try to cook more so I have more control over dinner.

As someone who also is working on similar health concerns, your plans sound reasonable, achievable, and repeatable. It's super hard to work on diet stuff when you're living with other people who are particular and don't want to change their habits.

I got irrationally annoyed at the woman who tried to honk me out of the way when I was picking up groceries at the curb.

I honestly think the pandemic has made people more wildly impatient and unable to regulate their emotions. I, uh, yelled a little at a woman who started honking INCESSANTLY when the car in front of her was waiting while I was actively using the crosswalk yesterday. Like, lady, I know you have somewhere to be but please stop advocating for pedestrian murder.

I yell at cars SO OFTEN.

Skye, do you like smoothies? They are my easy sneaky way to get fruits and veggies when my meals for the day have been carbs and animal protein. (I always *intend* for my meals to have fruits and/or veggies, but sometimes Tim asks "Want to go out for lunch?" and then I find myself eating 2 pancakes with a side of bacon and not a fruit or a vegetable in sight. So, smoothie.)

I have a moderate amount of road rage, but in my defense, people are terrible drivers and also jackasses who can get fucked for what they did.

Reasonable.

Yes.

Also yes.

Omg y’all. 2 people who accepted job offers, 1 to start Monday and 1 to start in 2 weeks both just withdrew their accepted offers within 5 minutes of each other. WTF?!?!

Yelling at cars is right and good. I often sing curse filled songs at them.

Like: you fucking twat-nose, where’d you learn to drive? Asshole school?!?!!
