today's entry is a bitchfest about stupid people (or decent people doing stupid things, you make the call). if you don't care to read, well, uh, don't. :)

1. asswipe blue miata guy. last night on my way home from choir class, i was following this blue miata to the freeway. well, the freeway onramp splits (you can either go straight or go right). it looked like the blue miata guy was going straight, and i was going right, so i got into the lane to get onto the freeway. well, evidently stupid blue miata guy was actually getting on the freeway too, but he can't drive... so he thought i cut him off. he tailgated me all the way up the ramp, and then once we got on the freeway he swerved out from behind me, sped up, and swerved back RIGHT in front of me. he almost clipped my bumper, and then swerved out quickly into the third lane. what a jackass. i wasn't trying to cut him off in the first place. road ragers suck. and the stupid thing is, his stupid toy car would have been the one in pieces on the side of the road, and he would have been stuck with the insurance bills because he was the dumbass. whatever.

2. cologne overdose guy. monday night at the gym, marla and i were going our own merry way and lifting weights in the machine room. lo and behold, this middle-aged guy wearing sweatpants hiked up around his armpits made his way into our area... and promptly sucked all the breathable air out of the room. seriously, there is NO need to put on cologne before you go to the gym. and if that reek is left over from when you put on cologne this morning, you're wearing way too damn much cologne. ugh. let us breathe.

3. saggy boob chic chick. dress your age, people. in line behind me at the soup place yesterday was this woman who was dressed to look about 25. in actuality, she looked about 60 (and a haggard 60, at that. or maybe 50 and a heavy smoker). she wasn't fat or anything, but she was wearing an off-the-shoulder, low-cut boob shirt. besides the fact that off-the-shoulder clothes are very 80's, her boobs were practically tucked into her waistband. seriously. and i know i'm no fashion maven, but come on...

4. electronics sizzler. don't water your plants on top of your computer monitor! it's electronic equipment, of course it's going to spark and die when you spill water on it. *sigh* and this is after i told her not to do it... she's a smart girl, but sometimes i wonder about people.

okay, i think i'm done now. *whew*

one good thing though-- setareh has a very good possibility of coming to intern with a doctor at stanford this summer. YAY! she had a very positive response already from a researcher she likes, and hopefully she'll get the grant funding to do it. at any rate, that means she'll be in the area for six weeks or so. yay! :) i'm so excited for her.
