Streets Crossed - 6 Times Almost Struck By a Vehicle - 2

Well its been a banner fucking Christmas in the old Bender household... wait that's Breakfast Club... Its been a banner fucking morning for the Rye Guy today... our street light went out just about a half hour ago and being the genius that I am I decide to go out and direct the traffic coming into our receiving dock until the PD shows up. Nice thing to do yes, completely selfless, not really if the truckers back up and the line to get in here gets out of control my life becomes hell anyway so it was sort of neccessary, completely idiotic.... absolutely.

The patience of the people in this neighborhood could fit on the head of a dime... so lil old me, cute as I am, standing out there with my hand raised evidently looks more like a green light than I realized. After the second fender was so close that my pant leg rustled I called it quits and luckily the po po showed up before anything got out of hand.

P.S. Let's hear it for the boy... I mean Fray, lets hear it for The Fray

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

That is one of the best references to suicide without saying suicide that I have heard in a long way... powerful lyrics, great song. The fact that its used in the promo and last nights Scrubs aside... also a great nod to the how to save a life line. Life line... I'll use phone a friend. Now I've gone too far.
