Wicked Witch of the West



Yes, this would be me.

I have a certain philosophy that I have carried with me throughout my life. Call me tainted by my upbringing or slightly odd, but there is no grey. I see things as black or white. There is no grey area. For instance, for the next three days, they are slurry sealing the streets in my neighborhood. Everyone in the 'hood had a notice placed upon our door informing us not to park on the street between the hours of 7:00am to 5:00pm on these three days, or we would be towed at our expense.

The big ole slurry seal machine just went down the side of the street that my house is on. Guess what? Three doors down, there are not one, but two cars sitting there unmoved! Further, guess what!? The machine went around them!!! Is it bad that I want those cars towed, and towed NOW? Is it bad that I want to be standing right there as your cars are being towed and laughing maniacally?

See what I mean? What is grey about being told that if you didn't move your vehicle, it would be moved for you? Am I the ONLY person who has to suffer consequences when I choose the wrong thing?



I'll get you, my pretty, and your little dog too!

If you are wicked, you're not alone. You should see me as the crossing guard telling parents they'll get their kids hit because they insist on jaywalking in front of a school bus instead of waiting and letting the crossing guard (me) get them across safely.

Or the photos I take of idiot parents who park their vehicles in the no parking zones, thus blocking buses and cars and forcing them to use the opposite side of the road to get by.

Someday I've been threatening to put these pictures on a "shame on you" blog of some sort. :o)

I like not living in a subdivision. Love you, Charmen
