this and that

It seems that any pet I get is either black, white, or both. Not sure why, its just the way I role I guess.

Besides that, my day was full of this and that, mostly love and hate.

Typically Id use Google Chrome, but it wouldnt let me play Dr. Mario for some reason...so I used Firefox. I started blogging on my other blog and got about 2000 words on there when I had to leave my internet source.

Unfortunately I was using Windows. Today, it made me hate it more. While I was on the way back here (Adams grandmas house) Windows decided to restart for God knows why (last time I checked it already updated) and, of course, closed every program without asking me.

I logged back on and Firefox restored about 500 of my words on my blogger. Good Firefox. But damn thats a lot missing.

Now this is why I love blogger. It saved my draft all the way up to the 2000th word. WIN!!!

And Its still love/hate between Dr. Mario. BLEH.

How to get through an intersection with no lights blinking red light

I was waiting for my bus today when PG&E shut off the power to the intersection. The turn lights completely shut off and the normal lights were blinking...typically what happens when street lamps are reset.

...

First few minutes, no fails. Good job. The first fail started when someone went into the turn lane and stayed there...for a very...long...time....as if she couldnt see that the stop light next to it was blinking!!!

So she finally goes. I notice that there is a guy at the cross walk waiting to cross...as if he couldnt see the giant blinking red lights. He continued to push the button to cross the street.

>.>

Then a lady came and tried to do the same thing but finally crossed. He jogged across along with her.

AND THEN

a car jumped in front of another car (this actually happened about five times from the fifteen minutes I was at the stop) as if the other car was supposed to wait when they had the right away.

OK so heres my guide to surviving outed street lamps and blinking red lights.

First off you do the same thing at stop signs, blinking red lights, and outed lamps. THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE. If you dont know what to do at a stop light then you should reread your drivers ed handbook.

Second, communicate. Is this dude about to go? If so, dont push on the gas pedal or walk into the street.

If you are on your feet and there is a blinking red light, the sign will not tell you to walk. Do what you do at a stop sign. If you dont have the common sense then whatever, get hit. Darwin at his
best.

If you are in the crosswalk and a car starts coming, STOP. If the driver proceeds to yell at you, smile and flip them off.

and most of all...
DO NOT VS BUSES!!!

they tend to win when things get physical.
