yes, boys and girls\u2026I have been on the roller coaster of life for the past few weeks and let\u2019s just get this clear\u2026i HATE roller coasters! i have been going through a little something something here for the last couple three weeks and i think i\u00a0finally\u00a0got the weird looking carny guy with the eye patch and\u00a0omnipresent cigarette hanging from his snaggle tooth mouth to stop the damn thing and let me off\u2026let me explain. not that i\u2019m calling myself the weird looking carny guy with the eye patch and omnipresent cigarette hanging from my snaggle tooth mouth BUT i am the one who stopped the ride. i had been feeling like a loser, baby, jack ass with no confidence in myself\u2026pathetic, big fat party of one! anyway, after driving my wonderful, patient and still with me wife crazy and\u00a0moping\u00a0around for way too long, i cranked that ride to a full on stop and got off. \"roller<\/a><\/p>\n

wow lisa, that\u2019s great\u2026why tell us?<\/p>\n

well, this is a good story\u2026who of us hasn\u2019t had a crap thing happen that you didn\u2019t expect to knock you off your feet and then had to act like your little scrappy dog when she tries to get up on the bed and pull your sorry ass up? i guess few if any\u2026<\/p>\n

the moral of the story is \u201cstay off roller coasters if you don\u2019t like them AND in the event you get on one and don\u2019t realize it, either give the amusement park \u201cassociate\u201d some money to stop immediately OR take the controls yourself and stop the dang thing\u201d. you will feel better; i promise.<\/p>\n

ok, gotta go find the little kid that was holding my purse and soda while i was on the ride\u2026the soda was nearly full for crying out loud\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
