grouches of the world unite...

i was over at bad tempered zombie's site, and i can't believe i just found out that it was national grouch day!

so i have stolen her post idea and am posting some things that are currently making me grouchy.

1. the fact that the majority of people do not know how to drive in the rain in vancouver. slow down, leave extra space and use your lights. is that so hard? here are some more tips...

2. the fact that although i was actively recruited to apply for this job at work, they have decided to repost it to see who else it out there. and the fact that they didn't tell me until after the job was reposted.

3. roman polanski. jokes about roman polanski and young girls. praise about roman polanski. the fact that i had to take not one, but two books out of the library about roman polanski for a piece i'm writing.

and now, here's a classic from oscar the grouch.

I didn't know this day existed either.

You'd think seeing as it is, well, Vancouver, people would learn how to drive in the rain! I've been told that if it snows here, its chaos. Perhaps I shall watch from my window with a hot cuppa ;)
