Stay OUT of the Left Lane!

Look I know it's been a while since any of us has picked up a drivers education manual.  Heck it's been a long time since I've even seen one.  But I'm sure the rules of the road have not changed.  The Left Lane has and always has been the "fast" lane.  If you are riding in this lane you should be doing more than the posted speed limit.  I should not have to get in the middle lane and pass you.  If you are being passed at any point in time on your right side YOU ARE IN THE WRONG LANE!!!!!  You pass on the left!!!  This drives me completely NUTS!!  Why are you riding your slow behind in the far left lane?  And to make matters worse there is NO ONE in the middle or far right lane!!  If I (or anyone else) comes up behind you, You should politely GET OVER!!  I (or anyone else) should not have to pass you in the middle lane.  This also applies to people being in the middle lane moving below the speed limit.  There is a reason the right lane exists! It's for you slow pokes.  You can cruise all day long in that lane and no one will be mad or make naughty hand gestures.  We people who actually read and remember our drives test know that you are in your correct lane. 
Please I'm begging you.  If you choose to move as slow as a snail keep to the far right lane.  If you choose to just go the speed limit, please stay in the middle lane.  And for Goodness sake if you are moving at either one of those paces KEEP OUT OF THE FAR LEFT LANE!! Beep Beep!!  This says it all!!!

Am I wrong???

"I am cleaning out the fridge on Sunday!"  Those were the words I spoke on Saturday and again on Sunday.  I have this thing about the fridge not being overly stuffed (and the pantry needs to be in  nice neat little rows but that's for another time)  I like to be able to see what is in the fridge.  Now I live in a house with three other people.  One I don't worry about stuffing the fridge.  The other two just put crap in there.  This includes the freezer.  I mean who puts the grocery bag in the freezer with the frozen items in it? So I get back from my week long vacation and open the fridge and it's bursting from the seems.  I'm talking food that was left when I went on vacay is still there. Plus other items.  So it's due for a cleaning.  I start my cleaning out of the fridge at like 7:00pm on Sunday.  So it's been a full day.  I throw away food that's been there.  I happened to throw out some cake and cheesecake.  I don't know how long they have been there.  Into the trash they go.  Like I said I told people I was cleaning out the fridge. 
Last night I was asked "Where is the cake and cheesecake?"  I said "Sorry I threw them out.  I told you I was cleaning out the fridge."  them: " But it was just put in there" Me: " Sorry I said I was cleaning out the fridge. Them:  *augghhh*  (into the room they go)  Me:  Oh well.....
Should I have waited to throw out the stuff or is it too bad so sad?! I did warn that I was cleaning it out.  As a matter of fact Sunday's will be clean out the fridge day.  I think I'll post a sign!!!


THIS REFRIGERATOR
WILL BE CLEANED OUT EVERY SUNDAY.  IF YOU HAVE FOOD THAT YOU WANT KEEP, PLEASE PUT A LABEL ON IT, WHICH HAS BEEN SO NICELY PROVIDED! 

THANK YOU

Family...Can't live with them....Can't disown them!

So I spent a week of vacation with my Sister, niece and Dad.  Can I just start out by saying that me and my Dad are too much alike to spend more than a few hours with each other much less a whole bleeping week!  But Hey I thought I'd give it a try.  Let's just say I will not be doing that again anytime soon.  Maybe in five/ten years.  Don't get me wrong.  I love my Dad.  But I love him when I don't have to spend so much time with him.  A week is just toooooooo long.  I guess family is like fish.  It's nice at the begining but after a few days it starts to STINK!  Ha ha. 

Anyway I did have a nice time away from work.  It was nice to see old friends and spend some time in my favorite store....IKEA.  I just LOVE that store.  I mean who wouldn't?  Okay I know there are people who don't .  I love it for all the things it has.Where else can you get a bedroom set, living room set, kitchen, and an office set and then get some Swedish Meatballs or a hotdog, or some ribs or chocolate cake and a nice Linoberry drink?  Not at Rooms to go!  So what if you have to assemble 98.9% of everything you purchase.  It helps you to work on your hand-eye coordination.  Hee hee.    Ahhhhh.... IKEA.  I want them to build one here in Jacksonville, FL. 

On another note.  I suppose it was not nice to trick  my 9 year old niece into riding the Jurassic Park Ride at Universal Studios Island of Adventure.  We (my sister Kila and I ) told her that it was just a nice boat ride through nice peaceful waters.  Ha after that drop, the look on her face was priceless.  Boy was she mad!  LOL. 
Till next time,

Smacking...NO not that kind

When I was little I always heard "Close your mouth when you are eating"  or "No smacking"  or "Nobody wants to see or hear what your eating"  So of course now as an adult I find that those lessons only took place in MY HOUSE.  There is nothing worse than to be sitting across from someone and see them shovel food in their mouth and then proceed to chew with their mouth open.  And along with the open mouth chew comes sounds ie Smacking.  It's like nails on a chalk board to me.  How hard is it to open your mouth, insert food and then close your mouth and chew?  It's not rocket science. 
Then you have the foods that are continuous.  Like GUM for one.  Have you ever been close to a person who was chewing gum and you felt like you were the piece of gum because you can hear every chew?!  Don't you want to turn to the person and say " Man that must be one juicy piece of gum!  Thank you for sharing your chewing experience with me."  Maybe that's just me.  Can't you hear yourself smacking the piece of gum? Why doesn't it bother you?! Not only do you get smacking with the gum chewing you also get popping, rapid succession popping and bubble popping.  Do it when your alone or with a group of gum smacking poppers.
I'm not asking much...Am I?  Just please consider closing your mouth whilst you chew.  Thank you

Did I tell you can call me that?!

So my name is Rhodie.  That should be enough.  It's not short for anything, it's not long for anything and it does not come with a nickname.  So why do people feel the need to call me something else.  And when I tell you I don't like that why then do they continue to do it?  My boss adds names that rhyme after he says my name.  I tell him "Please don't call me that." He says okay sorry.  And then the next freaking day he's back to rhyming.  WTH??!!  I'm not saying don't call me that just to hear myself talk.  Sheesh.  But it's not just him.  I've got family members that continue to shorten my name.  I finish it for them.  It's not that many syllables.  Just Two Rho Die.  How freaking hard is that?  The extra syllable must be so hard to spit out! 
Spread the word readers....Tell those people to complete my whole name.  Regardless that my blog is titled Rho's Had Enough.  I see the irony....

Did I ask you part 2??!!

Why do people feel it's okay to tell a person they don't even know to "smile"?  I don't go around telling people to stuff it when I see someone who needs to stuff it!  I always get some idiot who decides it's their job to tell me "it's okay to smile" or " You don't have to look like that, if you smile it will be better"  Do they ever think that maybe I don't want to smile or that I sense if I smile at them then they might take that as an invitation to start a stupid conversation with me?!  What's the big freaking deal if I choose not to walk around with a stupid grin on my face.  Smiles aren't candy! I'm not just going to give them out like they are.  And lets be honest I don't give out candy so why would I give a complete stranger a smile.  Mind your own dang business.  A sure way to make me give you the eye is to tell me to freaking smile! 
I have a smile on my face when I'm in places or at times that I feel like smiling.  Just pumping my gas or shopping in Walmart does not require a smile. Back off you smile pushers.  I'm not buying.
Next time you see a lady in the store who isn't smiling, do yourself and her a favor.  Just keep walking and smile to your own freaking self!
