So I've been enjoying driving around in my new to me truck. Good times. It's about the same on gas as my car used to be for road driving but really sucks it up if I drive around town.
People are jerks. I know I'm a people and a jerk.
My car was know widely as the carmobile. Like the batmobile only the flames didn't shoot out of it on purpose. Many a person learned how to drive and did their final road test in it. It was a well used and abused car.
Now I need to come up with a name for my truck. I'm slightly reluctant to name it though. It feels like a temporary vehicle still.
It's kind of old, temperamental, makes a lot of random noises and doesn't seem to like me that much. Maybe I'll call it Amy for awhile. :D lol burn.........!!
I started drinking coffee this year and now I drink it randomly. That's not to say I haven't bought a lot of it just I used to get other people the coffee and I'd grab an ice capp.
I only seem to ever drink tim hortons coffee. For being a giant nationwide chain you'd think they'd have at least a little consistency in the quality of their coffee.
Some of them are consistently bad though. Here's a list of a few cause I'm bored.
Thornbury: They have never mixed any of the coffee's I've got there. I don't like this one much at all.
Old west side one in OS: This place regularly just gives out wrong orders. They'll be labelled on the lids right but what's inside is a roll of the dice it seems.
Southampton: Not that bad, just usually really busy.
Durham: This place is random as heck, can be good or bad. I don't go there much anymore.
Meaford across from McDonald's: Meh, not bad. Usually a long line up.
Hanover near the one end of town: This place is always packed when I go there.
Here's a story about the Hanover one.
One time we were in a huge line up. (we had been working in town)
We get up to where there's just one car in front of us.
They pull up to the window.
A little old lady gets out.
She goes to her back door and gets her purse from the back seat.
Then she goes back and stands at the window and starts counting out her pennies.
She then walks to the back door, opens it, puts her purse back and back to the window she goes.
This is where she talked to her passenger and then repeated the getting the purse thing and penny counting (I assume she ordered something else for them).
She puts the purse back again. Gets into her car and sits there. They try to pass her order out the window but she can't reach so she gets out of the car again and proceeds to hand the things one at a time to her passenger.
The passenger starts getting agitated at this point. I figured it was for having to hold stuff... but wait ... what the ?
She then goes around the car to the passenger side back door and gets a coat out. Then she opens the passenger door. A little old man gets out, hands her the stuff he was holding. He puts the coat on and gets back in.
She tries to hand him the stuff but the door keeps swinging shut. He rolls the window down and she hands him the things through the window.
Finally she walks back around and gets in the car and proceeds to fly out into the intersection turning right with her left blinker on cutting of a car in the process.
It was something to see. I was waiting for one of those candid camera guys to pop out at any time and laugh at us or the people at the counter.
You could hardly be mad at this point because it was just too damn funny.
