Was there a major outbreak of stupid today?
Did I miss the memo about "All large truck deliveries must be made in the middle of busy streets for no apparent reason"
Or the news bulletin about cell phone use while driving now being mandatory?
Stop signs being repealed?
Laws of physics temporarily revoked?
Or maybe I'm just in a piss-poor mood this morning. Could be. Just coming back from four days off spent playin' with the kids and getting shit done around the house, and NOT enjoying the daily grind today...
And now I'm busier than a one legged man in a butt-kicking contest. Why oh why wasn't I born rich instead of devastatingly handsome?
(okay. y'all can stop laughing now...)
That is all.

This effect of hypersensitivity to normal stuff is commonly noted whenever a break from the normal stuff is experienced.
I first noted it when in college. I would go a week or two without reading the Houston Chronicle. Then I would notice how horrible all the news was, when next I read the front page. But after a few days the news seemed somehow not so bad anymore.
Similarly, I used to commute 47 miles each way from Baltimore to the DC beltway, five days a week. After each vacation I noticed that many drivers had become insane on my first day back. Then I acclimated and started either driving insanely myself or not noticing all the others (and how would I tell, I ask?).
Maybe it is like in the movie "Them" (if memory serves) with Roddy Piper (former wrestler turned actor, long before Hulk Hogan or the Rock) and the sunglasses which allowed him to see all the aliens among us.
The only solution I found was to never return to reading the papers or driving the Bal-Wash Parkway. Good luck with that.
"Was there a major outbreak of stupid today?"
How is today any different?
Have you ever considered decaf? Just askin'...
"All I need is a couple days off"
Damn, Saturday can't come soon enough.
Hoping we both survive until then.
