trying to be young and rebellious drivers of mini vans

OK so the other day while drive down the highway on my way home from work, I spot something that quickly grabbed my attention. Was it a nice classic car perhaps? A cute girl broken down on the side of the road? Maybe a low flying plane coming in for a landing some where close? A large row of military vehicles? A patrol car waiting to pull me over for speeding? Now while all of these are great attention grabbers while driving I must say nay to them all. What I saw was a mini van. (I’ll let you ponder on this for a sec) your right it was no ordinary mini van, okay maybe it was because its hard to make mini vans anything but ordinary. But this one was trying hard to be something it was not…. this one had racing stripes!



Yes racing stripes as if to say “yes I might be a soccer mom/dad but hey I still got a bit of an edge to my life because I have a car with racing stripes!” okay so racing stripes belong only on cars that might actually see a race track, not just the parking lot… now looking at the picture I'm fairly positive that this is NOT a factory paint scheme, which means that this person went out of their way to make there car look like this. Good job you made your van look like a giant skunk yah that’s cool. Racing stripes don’t make you or your car any cooler and they should be reserved only for muscle cars. If you want a car that actually looks good with racing stripes get a Camaro stop trying to be something you’re not, you fucking still trying to be young and rebellious drivers of mini vans, take your sienna and go put a suction cup Heathcliff in the back window. Fuck You.

‘the times’ and the economy

So this one I'm sure that every one can relate to especially right now if not in the past or I'm sure in the future. So for those that haven’t talked to me in a bit I can tell you that I am struggling financially and things just keep coming up that need fixing or money thrown at it for some reason. And I don’t really blame any one in particular but I do blame ‘the times’ times are tough right now and its killing everything and every body, right now I am only working part time and I really need full time to meet my needs and get be back on my feet. Unfortunately I was denied a full time position in the place I already work because of numerous different reasons that I don’t really want to get into (none of them faults by me). Recently my car has also been out of commission due to a rusting out rotting rear axle that has left me immobile (an estimated cost of $1000 to repair) so my last paycheck, which was very small even for two weeks of work went to the new part. And then I had to wait two more weeks to get money to get my car actually into the shop for it to get fixed (total of 4+ weeks with out a personal vehicle) so now I hope I have enough money to get it fixed. Finally thinking I'm in the clear of problems my Xbox shits the bed and now I have to send that out for repairs, but this is not a necessity item but it does suck majorly because it’s not only my gaming system but also my DVD player, so no movies either…fuck!

So really I now that these things come up in life and its somewhat expected to have these type of bills but with all of them happening at once it sucks balls, I have had $21 in my bank account for the last 2 months, all of my checks I have had to cash in order to get parts for my car or gas money or what have you. I can barely pay my school loans or car insurance; actually I'm pretty sure I can NOT pay them this month. And for this I don’t really blame any one but ‘the times’. I know that I'm not the only person in the world who is having issues right now but the economy sucks and that’s how its going to be for a while I'm sure, now I know that my problems could have been fixed if I had just gotten that full time position, but hey life’s a bitch a you have to play the hand your dealt. So to this I say FUCK YOU to ‘the times’ and the economy its time to straighten this shit out, and I don’t usually go political with things but where is that ‘change’ that we all voted for???
