Wednesday morning thoughts

I have a couple of random thoughts I have been collecting through out the day…

I was walking back to my desk at the Titanic yesterday when I randomly commented to a young lady clearly on her way home that I hoped the roads were in good shape. She commented there was enough time to get the roads clear and she liked the fact we were at the end of winter. If you live in the Midwest, I would like to let people that because it is the end of February it is NOT the end of winter. How our memory leaves when not remembering the small little ice storm last Easter weekend which I braved (with a 360 I think before indulging) because I needed a few pops and I am sure at one point was shaking my booty. We still have March which can drop some of the worst that Jack Frost and Mother Nature have to offer.

I went to buy one of my two cups of coffee for the week yesterday. I went for the cash – before I got the cash register – and had $1 on me. I looked through searching the pockets and came up with nothing. I knew I had money and must left it in a previous set of pockets. I did what I dread doing – withdrawal from an ATM that I knew would charge me a fee. I thought, “Hey $1 will not kill me.” I put my card in there and it would not process my request. UGHH!!! I despaired for a moment until I saw another ATM. I put my card in but it wanted to charge me $2.50 for the transaction. Fricken Fracken. I did it as my coffee was sitting in the store chillin like a villain. As I sat their drinking the coffee I immediately tried to figure out what I was going to go without due to this unforeseen expense. Food for a week? Ride my bike to work in place of driving? We will see.

I will post some more in the following days...
