Christmas Eve - A day off

Finally! Too bad I live in a neighborhood that must be at least 99% Christian. I spent most of the morning parking-lot jousting. I serpentined my way for fifteen minutes before I found an open spot, just so I could find the store shelves empty of egg nog. So I came home, fired off a fuck you letter to the LIRR to document their poor performance:

Say, anyone interested in getting together and filing a class action suit against the gov't for a ticket refund? I just might do it, but I don't do state practice, and I know there's that Article 67 shit that has to be done in less than 30 days of a cause of action arising or something. I just want to make a case and hurt them, the bastards. They're robbing me of the most valuable thing I have left in life, my time.

Hope you all have a MERRY CHRISTMAS, and otherwise a happy holiday. Peace out.
