Some jerk did this to my car while I was at work today and didn’t bother leaving a note. Now I am probably out $200 and my darling car—my favorite non-person thing in the world—has a black eye. I could punch someone right now, except there is no one to punch. It’s sort of like that time someone broke into my house and stole my Macbook and I didn’t have anyone to punch then either. I know it’s just stuff and stuff can be fixed or replaced, but I just get really indignant because I work hard for these things and then someone comes out of nowhere and craps all over them. Why are people sometimes terrible? At any rate, I spent today with Al Jazeera plugged into one ear and this Egypt mess is insane. Really, the entire Middle East. Makes me really thankful I live here and not there. However much we complain and satirize our government, we are damn lucky. So this is not my 365 photo because I’m not letting it define my day. And to the anonymous jerk out there, I hope your car looks worse.

About



Sometimes I write things on Nashvillest.com and other times I work a real job that involves lots of airports, hotels, spreadsheets and the occasional pantsuit. Avid roadtripper, lover of redbud trees and firm believer in taking the scenic route. These are a few of my favorite things.

Ask me anything.
