There was a pizza party at work today to reward us for "the hard work we did last month". I don't eat pizza. Originally I was going to bring my sandwich over but at the last minute I felt too self-conscious to do that. So I stayed at my desk and ate my sandwich by myself.

Actually I don't mind eating alone, but this was supposed to be a reward luncheon. Some reward if you don't like the lunch.

I don't like pizza either, so I make sure they know I'll pout if they order it.

I haven't even seen it. And don't know if i will pick any of them up. Way to many out at one time for my pocket book to get.
I guess i will just have to piece together what happens to whom from what people say.
Kinda like DC one million. I heard that the ultimate villain was a sentient sun that was originally a villain from out time, but never found out WHO that villain was.
Ehhh, whaddaya gonna do?
Damn you, you kids! Get off my lawn or I'm callin' tha cops!
Something pithy!

Man I hate to beg. Yeah, but you're so cute begging. :-) I'll try to run by Lytle's on Monday and see if they have a copy of OMAC #1.

Back to the venting - I had a flat on the way back to work after (a long) lunch today and ha ha ha I don't have a spare because the last time I got a flat my spare also gave out about 1/2 block from the tire store. Okay, so stupid me for not having replaced the donut but they don't carry 'em at the parts store I got the tire at and I just hadn't gone to the dealership to get one yet cause, hey all my tires are pretty new and I am also very stupid apparently. So I had to have the car towed to a service station and pay the overpriced service station charge for the tire and labor. I will be getting the new spare soon. Also, rather than be helpful, the mrs. mostly fixated on why I had not gotten a new spare yet. A valid point, but not the most helpful at the time. True there wasn't much she could have done other than try to see if one of her family could have given me a tow (she has the kind of family that can tow things when needed, which is great.) I would have settled for sympathy at least. What a day. I should be heading for home now but my enthusiasm for sitting in traffic now is not so great.
Whine, whimper etc.

Heck, I've been told for a while that I needed an alignment. So I finally took my truck in for an alignment.
THEN I found out it wasn't an alignment that was needed. I just had faulty shocks. Gee, 219,500 miles on a set of shocks, and they go bad. Who woulda thunk it???
So I dropped a small fortune to get new shocks for my truck. With a lifetime warranty. I asked my boss about the lifetime warranty, and he told me it's really only a 6 month warranty - the place just figured the truck wouldn't last longer than that.

Now...back to vent. Had jury duty today. Yeah I know civic duty and all but come on. This has been my third jury summons and I got chosen once again. Then to make matters worse, due to Smith county being so large 36 of us had to travel to a small town called Troup. The court room was a metal building, all 36 of us could not fit in the court room. After waiting about 2 hours after start time the State came in but no defense or bad guy. So after waitng a bit longer the State recommends that they place a warrent out for the bad guys arrest. Judge says good, State leaves then we get speech about fair trials and we are let go. Did I fail to mention this was ALL day.

Here in Massachusetts, we have a one day or one trial system for jury duty. Is it the same in Texas? (Sounds like it) My last time for jury duty I was almost picked. It was a medical malpractice case and my law school graduation ceremony would have occurred during the trial. By the time they got to me, most of the jury pool had been dismissed. When I said why I wanted to be dismissed, the judge said that he couldn't dismiss me outright, but if I got picked for the trial, he would hold a recess so I could go to graduation. It got down to me and 2 other guys on that stand-by. Luckily at that time they only needed one more juror. Me and the other guy that didn't get picked didn't hang aroiund when the judge said we were dismissed.
