Light Rock, Beans and Rental Cars.

So I've been driving around in a vehicle that's not mine for 2 weeks.  A month ago, the same thing happened.  My car is what I call "dead" at the moment.. for the 2nd time in 2 months.  So, I'm driving another while mine is in... let's just say "The Shop".  Now, I try to be a positive person, but it's really hard sometimes.  I really do HATE this "rental car".  I just CANNOT - for the Life of me - get comfortable in this thing.  I am constantly adjusting the seat.. adjusting the steering wheel... the mirrors...  the heat.  There are just certain things that will feel awkward, no matter how much you try to make them feel like part of you.  This ride is one of them.  I want to appreciate the fact that I have transportation during this vehicular pickle I'm in, but I'm like.. Fuck It.  I hate it, and that's all there is to it.  Perhaps a tiny bit of hate is good for you.  NOFX seems to think so. 

I don't even know where I come from.  Most females I know do not give a rat's ass what they drive... or how "comfortable" they are in said vehicle.  "It's a CAR.. it gets me where I need to go".  I couldn't feel further away from this philosophy.  I actually LOVE my car.  I love driving it.  I feel super comfortable in it.  It just feels like ME.  I love hopping in..  throwing on some tunes.. and trekking on my way.. zig-zagging along Earth Mother's curves.  Sometimes at law-breaking speeds.  I have high hopes that she will be back in working condition w/in the next week.  HAHA.. you think God has time to hear my 'fix my car' prayer??  My gram seems to think he can fix her knee.....

Coffee beans just popped into my head.  I want to know how they get the caffeine OUT of the bean, to make decaf coffee.  Seriously!  That's just weird.  "Okay Ed, time to suck out the caffeine."  ....???  Who would have ever thought such a thing was possible????  And.. here's my answer:

Decaffeination

And.. speaking of decaf..  I don't usually like songs like this..  the Godforsaken "light rock"..  but I Love this one.  Hope you enjoy it too:
