For a foggy Wednesday

I have to get back into the blogging groove. Three months off has made me rusty (oil can…oil can…). I have a few commuting horror stories, but I will save them for an entire post about the assholes on my train. Then there are the assholes on the bus. Like the lady who kept asking her husband “do they have Target stores in Florida?”. Ugh. Ever hear of Google, bitch? Give it a try. And shut your insipid pie hole. She did a straight 20 minutes about baby formula and the airport. BABY FORMULA AND THE AIRPORT. I don’t know how her husband does it. Give that guy some kind of award for taking one for the team. (And by “team” I mean the entire human race).

Anywho…I decided that I will save all that stuff for later, and follow a lead from all my Facebook friends. There’s this post going around where people write 25 random things about themselves. I did one a couple of weeks ago, but thought it might be fun to do another one and post it here, so here goes….
