She wasn't pooping! (she was totally pooping)

Sitting in a freaking La Quinta in El Paso this evening after dining on some Mexican food from an establishment that, upon reflection, is basically a crappy, Mexican Hooters.  At least I got a free drink out of it, since my takeout wasn't ready when I showed up for it.

I know quite a few of you reside in the, ummm, great state of Tejas, but I have to say.....this will be my sixth drive across it from tail to tip (oh yeah, I said it).  I fervently wish for it to be the last.   The drive is just soul crushing, and that was without having to deal with Houston this time.  Can't say I'll be sad to put it in my rear view tomorrow morning. (Not to say I don't enjoy parts of it. Austin is great, for instance.  I just never want to drive to it again.)

OMG I'm in a La Quinta, too!  In Everett, WA, trying to get as close to a trailhead as possible so that I can get up at 4 a.m. rather than 2 a.m. for my hike tomorrow.

The guy who checked me in told me twice how pretty I am and, right before giving me my key, asked if I am married.  He's going to come up and smell my sheets after I leave, isn't he?  As we all know, I'm way past my prime, so I was thinking there's no way I'm one of the best-looking people he's seen today, but then I remembered I'm in Everett.

Have a safe trip; when is your LA ETA?  And when do you start work?

I spent the night in Everett last night.  Couple fun bars there.

Unpossible!!!!

 
Almost had to get all murdery this morning.

Today, like every Friday, is Spirit Day. Everybody is supposed to wear our school colors (this is me blowing a raspberry and making the international JO motion...I mean it's not like we have a football team).

Today was also ours monthly "your department brings coffee and donuts" day (unless you're a #### and then you bring some crappy homemade egg casserole in your suspect looking Pyrex). 

So this one female teacher, we'll call her Zoot,  walks into the lounge wearing a Knights that say Ni shirt.  Another female teacher, we'll call her Midget, sitting at my table says "OMG I love your shirt!" I say something like "yeah, awesome shirt." 

Zoot says "my husband bet me that nobody would get my shirt. Looks like he was wrong." I tell her "of course a few of us would get it...it's a classic movie". Midget agrees "I LOVE Holy Grail!"

Zoot then joins us at our table. She and Midget then start to quote the movie.

EVERY SINGLE LINE THEY QUOTED WAS WRONG

I honestly thought they were running my shtick against me. I even looked around to see if one of you people was catching it all on camera.  

Zoot: It's only a scratch.

Midget: Here comes some royalty. How do you know? Because he's not filthy!

Zoot: Bring out your dead! But I'm not really dead! I feel ok! I feel ok!

Me

I wish I was kidding.

Zoot: Oh oh oh what's the line? Oh 'How much does a bird with a coconut weigh?' Is that it?

Me again: What...is...the...airspeed...velocity...of..an unladen...swallow?  That one?

Zoot: lolololololol yes! Hilarious.

They're lucky killing people is against district policy.

1. Check for peepholes and cameras.

2.  Were you wearing jean shorts? If so you can't blame the guy.

3. La Quinta is Spanish for "next to Denny's".

Orange Co. ETA is Sunday evening.  Work starts on the 18th....unless this Equifax hack has my ID/credit totally borked by then, in which case, I will probably just keep driving into the ocean and the sweet release of death.

 
Ok, I might be a little behind on hydration.  :oldunsure:

Gonna need a rally for a Friday night on Fremont. Perversely, hydration isn't a problem here right now, as storms have been raking the valley since I got back to my hotel.

Wayne Brady would definitely have to choke a b####.

 
Bad, naughty Zoot!

I am down $18 for the day after gambling in 14 different casinos. This rate of loss is acceptable.

Well, she has had an awful lot of birthdays.

 
The gambling has been going so well today, it's starting to scare me. Will take a short break this evening for my East Fremont hipster bar crawl.

 
How hard is it to make sure your ####### internet works if you are a business providing internet as part of your agreement with consumers?

In Phoenix now...which is way, way more rednecky than I recalled it being.  Oh, well, only going to be here about 14 hours before the final leg of this BS, but would really like about 6 drinks before crashing (but "no habla Espanol", other than some curses and "cerveza", so it appears im SOL in this part of town). Pray for mojo.

I'm soliciting free  pro bono legal advice random thoughts and ramblings, but definitely NOT advice

I bought a "certified" Lexsux six moths ago from a San Antonio Lexsux dealership. I was told there had been no accidents and I was shown a clean carfax. When I was at the local Austin dealership getting service last week, I asked them what kind of a trade-in they'd give me on mine. He said that because of the four damage reports (Front, left &right, rear right,and rear center). reported five months before I purchased it he could only offer 20,000

 After approaching the dealership that sold it to me, I was told "they'd take care of me." Came to find out they'd give me 1500 less (18,500) than the Austin dealership on my previously damaged car on a purchase at full retail of another car.

I was willing to work with them in good faith, but its obvious they have none. . 

Their excuse is that the Carfax was not updated at the time of sale. I told them that that's fine, they still broached my original purchase agreement whether it was their fault or Carfax's

In my last text I told them that I consulted with my attorney and he told me, at this point,  I'd be crazy to take anything less than a full refund.

Negotiations are becoming a little contentious.

Sleep with Carfax's wife?

 
10 AM football still an adjustment, but I managed to get three drinks and a low-dose edible in me, and I am now making a mockery of the brunch at my hotel.

There is a difference in them intentionally defrauding you and Carfax data not being current. You need a detailed paper trail to know which is the case. My guess is they're criminals, they'll deny it, and you can't possibly prove it. /exdealerproboner

The Carfax was not updated with the four accidents until after I purchased. But this car was represented as accident free by them to me. Lexsux certified is a national, corporate program. I don't think they'd want to bad pub of selling a car like this and not immediately remediating the damage once they were aware of it. My buddy here who has run a number of dealerships told me to sue them and they'll never take it to court because dealerships always lose
