Maybe I’ve been overcome with Holiday cheer but I haven’t done a cranky post about my commute in a while. I didn’t complain about the extra security during Thanksgiving that made me miss my MARC train. I didn’t fuss about the Amtrack holiday travelers that made getting in and out Union station a nightmare. I didn’t even write about the 15 inches of snow that prevented me from riding my bike and forced me to ride the metro with crowds of unhappy commuters last week. But this morning, I can’t hold back! Could it be that the Christmas spirit is gone already?
No disrespect to parents of toddlers… and I know this is how they learn… but “why” should be stricken from the English language! I’m telling you if the little hair boy with the beautiful blue eyes asks his Father “why, why Daddy?”
one more time…this early in the morning… I’m gonna SCREAM!!! As one ages, patience must go out the window because I don’t remember inquisitive little children bothering me at all but this morning he is working my last nerves.
I’m seriously thinking of asking Congress to declare the word “why”, it’s meaning, translation and the expression thereof as an act of treason followed by declaring it a hate crime punishable by law!!! As you can see I’m cranky this AM!
God bless the inventor of headphones, MP3 players, and artist that make soothing music *turning up iPod really loudly*.
Happy Holidays everyone!
