</p> <p> The coffee shop I go to each morning on my way into the office has two entrances to the drive through lane.&nbsp; One is from the parking lot and the other enters directly from the street.&nbsp; When you are on the street side, you can't see who is lined up in the drive parking lot.&nbsp; I always come in through the parking lot because I don't want to block traffic - in the parking lot you kinda expect to be blocked by other customers.&nbsp; People driving on the road shouldn't have to stop for us caffeine junkies. </p> <p> This brings me to my morning dilemma&nbsp; - who do I cut off to get in line? &nbsp; I can see who is moving and who isn't on the road, so I can easily figure out who was in line before I got there, but they usually can't see me/us so when they think they have the right-of-way, they are probably three or four cars behind all of us.&nbsp; I usually let one in just so I don't feel guilty - but that doesn't always work. </p> <p> Even though I am in the right - it still feels bad knowing they think I just cut them off.&nbsp; It's even better when they start yelling and cursing through their windows. </p> <p> It's a fantastic way to start the day. </p> <p> GRRRRR. </p> General 2010-07-28T21:00:16Z rob http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/index.php?op=ViewArticle&articleId=120&blogId=1 <p> Took him in to the Emerg of Sick Kids today - had just got to work when Mic called me. </p> <p> He was like a wet noodle this morning when he first got up.&nbsp; Not normal - he just slumped in my arms and if you picked up his arm and droped it - he just let if fall completly limp. &nbsp; </p> <p> They kept him in - put him on IV because he was throwing up and not keeping liquids in. </p> General 2010-07-26T10:14:55Z rob http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/index.php?op=ViewArticle&articleId=125&blogId=1 <div align="center"> <a id="res_335" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1636.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1636.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_353" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1640.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1640.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_337" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1649.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1649.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_354" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1655.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1655.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_339" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1658.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1658.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_340" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1660.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1660.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_341" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1669.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1669.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_342" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1673.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1673.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_343" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1674.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1674.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_344" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1684.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1684.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_345" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1687.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1687.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_346" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1689.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1689.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_347" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1691.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1691.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_348" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1694.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1694.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_349" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1698.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1698.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_350" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1700.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1700.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_351" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1703.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1703.JPG" border="0" /></a><a id="res_352" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/DSC_1705.JPG" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/DSC_1705.JPG" border="0" /></a> </div> General 2010-07-25T09:59:11Z rob http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/index.php?op=ViewArticle&articleId=124&blogId=1 <div align="center"> <a id="res_334" href="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/334-nate.jpg" rel="ibox"><img src="http://www.globaljunkdrawer.com/gallery/1/previews/334-nate.jpg" border="0" /></a> </div> General 2010-07-21T00:26:23Z rob
