Ugh...LAZINESS!

I know it's been a while since my last blog post, and I am sorry about that. The bottom line here is that I am lazy. I'm just not equipped to deal with my daily life, all it's little nuances and then blog everyone's face off about it. I just really wish I was. Perhaps it would help if I had a particular topic to write this blog about other than the wacky dealings in my life and how I react to them. Suggestions would be appreciated...

So...what can I talk about tonight regarding the dealings of the past couple of weeks? Well, I guess the ultimate was that the co-worker who I wrote a blog about a while back is no longer a co-worker of mine. Yep, his dumb ass got walked right out the front door. In a way, I am somewhat sad to see him go...strictly because now I have to find other means of amusement throughout the day when I am in the office. That, and I will miss him because he was such an important part of my life. Wait, let me go grab a tissue as I shed a tear...

Lately, I have had to do a little car shopping. And by little, I mean every fucking day, at a dealership for hours, exchanging punches with each and every car salesman that I meet. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy car shopping. It gives me a good prospective as to how much we've screwed ourselves in the past few decades. When you really think about it, buying a car is the WORST decision someone could ever make. First off, they cost a small fortune - unless you're buying one of those stupid Smartcars or even worse, a fucking Mini Cooper. Second, they depreciate in value the moment you get into the car and drive it off the lot. And third, if you're like me (and you drive a shitload), then you go through them every few years. To me, that is a HUGE waste of money and the worst capital expenditure that I can possibly think of.

However, I diverge... Getting a new car is a great feeling though. An even better feeling is knowing you got to stick it to the salesperson and the dealership on price. Ha ha! That's always a fun one for me. Last weekend, I was at a dealership for 3 hours going back and forth with the salesman. Another salesman even brought me a big bottle of water after he got himself one! Told me that he hadn't been worked over like that in a long time. Made me question if the guy was really married or not...heh.

I'll be sure to let you know when this whole process ends and what I end up with. I'm sure I'll have a good story about it. Until next time...
