The Little People

Jun 20, 2005 Author: Anna | Filed under: Anna, Babbling

You ever come across one of those people that just fights to fight? Who’s young and doesn’t really have a clue about life yet? You really should be kind to them. Try and help them to think more openly and see the world without the rose colored glasses on.

Or in my case get immense pleasure out of poking them repeatedly. It’s bad, I know. It beneath me, I understand. But it’s still fun nonetheless. And Cassisy’s not around so who else am I supposed to torment?! :mrgreen:

*I understand that only Kristen and Julie are going to get this.

Exploding Dog

Jun 19, 2005 Author: Anna | Filed under: Anna, Cassidy, aflux.net

Cassidy and I both love Exploding Dog. This is one of her favorite images. She left for her dad’s today and I needed ‘busy work’ so here ya’ have it. We’ll be seeing her in two weeks for a wedding/trip to my dads/Disneyland for nine days. I wonder if I’ll have the entire site coded to match the new layout by then…

Yes, I know it’s very, very, very, almost blindingly colorful. Cassidy likes it so deal. HA! ;)

California Tow Laws.

Jun 19, 2005 Author: Anna | Filed under: Anna, Rant

We ate at Fuddruckers tonight at Cassidy’s request. The restaurant is located in an extremely busy shopping center in Union City. EVERY time we go there we drive around for at LEAST 15 minutes looking for a place to park.

After driving around for 15 minutes tonight in the GTI (thank every diety we were not in the M3 or Ben would probably have killed somebody) we parked in an Extended Stay’s parking lot. There were the standard Private Property signs there. After 15 minutes I told Ben to just PARK THERE even though he pointed the sign out to me. I really should have kept my mouth closed because when we left the car was gone and had been towed.

Our receipt at Fuddruckers time stamp is 8:45PM. The tow company reciept states they picked the car up at 9:03PM. We drove straight to the tow yard to pick it up and after paying the $265 fee were walking out the door to the car to drive home at 10:04PM.

Of course as soon as I get home I’m online to see how I can fight this. My first thought is to call the City and bitch. The parking there sucks major ass and I’m sure as hell complaining to SOMEBODY about the $265. I find out within 5 mintues that the owner of any private property is required by CA DMV Section 10851 CVC (Taking a Vehicle Without Owner’s Consent) to wait at least one hour before a car can be lawfully towed… not 18 minutes BITCH!

I’ll be contacting a lawyer first thing Monday morning to get my money back and hopefully some compensation for having to find a ride to the lot and the distress this has caused me. :D

Somebody just burnt popcorn in the breakroom. The microwave has a button on it that says: POPCORN. This button cooks the popcorn perfectly every time. Never overdone, never underdone. But there’s always that ONE idiot that doesn’t seem to believe in the POPCORN button that stinks the enitre floor to high hell.

Women! *rolls eyes*

Tsunami Warning

Jun 14, 2005 Author: Anna | Filed under: Anna, In the News

We decided to play some City of Heroes after the Princess went to bed and as Ben was getting up off the couch the annoying, loud, ear bleeding sound from the Emergency Boradcast System came on the TV. I was about to yell at Ben to mute it when he said, “Tsunami Warning?!”

Crazy. They said it was not confirmed and that it was just a precaution. But still, crazy. I can only imagine all the freaked out people in the Bay and it made me think if there really WAS a Tsunami and everybody tried to leave San Francisco all at one time and in the 30 minutes warning we had tonight… well, it would not be a successful evacuation attempt. At all. Hopefully they’d know to just get to higher ground within the city. But judging by the way the people in the city drive, not gonna happen either.

BIO
Hello! Welcome to aflux.net! My name is Anna and I am NOT the internet. I have a fabulous husband, a silly daughter, two cats and 14 personalities. I'm a loud mouthed, outspoken, opinionated pain in the ass but I swear I make up for it by being cute and cuddly. I like pie. I'm on pretty much every single social network out there so rather than go on and on about myself, go joing them, add me, and join the circus in my head. I promise I won't bite too hard and if nothing else, I'm fun to laugh at when you're feeling down.
