Dear Diary . . .

Did I ever mention in passing that I really, really hate freeway mountain passes? There is something about going downhill really fast with lots of other traffic at 70+ mph that just makes my anus clench.

Just thought you needed to know that. It's even more fun when you add the thrill of rain or snow. Throw in a few semis and my joy is complete.

Take Donner Pass in California. No, really YOU take it. I don't want to. It's too fast, and too wide and too scary and slippery, especially when wet or snowy. And as if Donner wasn't bad enough, let's talk about Snoqualmie pass in Washington State. Multiply the wetness factor by about ten, and the distance of the worst part by about 5, and that's Snoqualmie.

I believe that I have traveled damned near every major mountain pass in the lower 48, north and south, east and west. Now, I'm a damned good driver, but there is just something about going down hill at a high rate of speed that just makes my knuckles white, and somewhere else a bit brown.

I'm not quite ready to disclose why I felt compelled to talk about mountain passes today, but suffice to say that I have had my fill of them.

I've likewise had my fill of rain recently.

And please, don't get me started about our neighbors to the north. Sorry all of you who live in Canada-EH! I'm sure you are lovely people as individuals, but as a tribe, y'all are something else again. I do appreciate the money you bring into our economy, but erm, next time, could you just send the money, and stay home? Thanks.

Yeah, I'm being a bit bitchy, but y'all need to just deal, OK?

In other news, I've finally gotten laid. Thought that would likewise make your day. It sure as shit made mine.

End of the bizarre update.
