It's the little things that get you...

I hate the freeway, especially at rush-hour... everyone drives like maniacs! Today we were driving down the freeway, and in the lane to the right, a ladder fell off a truck onto the road! Everyone started swerving to avoid it, and we barely got around it without getting hit. I've been in a car crash before (that was not my fault), and it is not fun. So I've become a very cautious driver, to avoid all the idiots on the road. I've seen people before who were eating, drinking, brushing their hair, and even applying mascara while driving. Not to mention all the people who drive while talking on cell phones... don't even get me started on that. No wonder so many people have "road rage".

"I'm trying to cut down on my caffeine consumption

So when I get up I just have one cup of coffee.

And then I like to have another cup of coffee with my breakfast,

And on the way to work I like to get a cup of coffee

Like the kind of cup of coffee that you get with a donut,

'Cept I never get the donut, I just have the cup of coffee,

And when I get to work I like to have a cup of coffee

Because I like to have my coffee when I'm talking on the phone,

Except it usually goes cold, so I have to get another cup of coffee

And then I go to lunch and I have an espresso."

"And when I get back, it's not morning anymore

So I have a diet cola and another diet cola,

And by then I'm feelin' fine and I'm feelin' pretty sharp

And I'm feelin' pretty wired and I'm gettin' things done,

But right about 2:00 I get this little tiny migraine

And it starts behind my eyes and it moves to the back of my neck

And it moves to the bottom of my spine

But it doesn't get there until 5 or 6 o'clock

Which is the end of the day, so I'm fine,

So I'm FINE!, SO I'M -FINE-...

Except, when I have to work late,

When I have to work late, which I usually do..."
