I just got back from taking Dad to Denver International Airport. He's flying to L.A. to visit my sister for Christmas. I want to know one thing: Why does everybody slow to 10 miles BELOW the posted speed limit when they see an officer on the side of the road? The speed limit is 65, the officer is busy with some other schmuck, he's not coming after us, so DRIVE already! Going under the limit does not counteract the fact you were speeding mere moments ago.
Got my paycheck today and no bonus. I hope the owner is proud of himself, the damned scrooge. That was truly the last straw. I understand that he can't afford the same bonuses we were used to, but a little token would've been nice. Something to let us know our hard work is appreciated.
I am having the hardest time getting in the holiday spirit this year. Christmas is a little over 4 days away and I could truly care less. I finally got the tree into its stand on Monday and that's as far as I got. I'm taking tomorrow off from work so I hope to get the lights and ornaments on. I do need to come to town and do the last of my holiday shopping. I was really hoping to get that bonus to get some better gifts, but now I'll have to be more frugal. *sigh*
I'm writing on my dad's computer. I like our satellite conncection better than dial-up, but this cable connection rocks! Anyway, he lives across the street from Buckley Air Force Base. A jet just took off and Dad's cat, Sadie, just had a conniption. You would think that after all the years they've been here that she would be used to that by now. Hee
