Lowe's

Dear Lowe's Employees,

Trying to avoid me will not make me go away.  It is your job to help me so when you blatantly avoid making eye contact in hopes I will ask someone else for help, I will simply use my words to get your attention.  The fact that this happened not once but 3 times was a bit overkill.  Is this part of the new training program?  The surprised looks followed by looks of relief when all I wanted to know was where I could find something I was able to name by name rather than vague description were amusing, however.  Not all women who shop there are stupid females sent by their husbands to get random stuff so we don't try to "help" them with whatever home improvement project they are working on.  Some of us actually know what we are doing in a home improvement store.  Some of us actually like to shop there.

On a positive note, the gal in the paint department was quite efficient and very friendly, which was a nice change of pace from the last several times I have purchased paint. 

Thank you,
Heather

Dear Fellow Drivers,

I realized long ago that trying to figure out how my little brain works is a lesson in futility. Over the years, I have just come to accept my sense of logic doesn't usually make sense to well, anyone, sometimes myself included. So, maybe it's just because of the way I think that I don't think the following concept is rocket science: I am limited in how fast I can go by how fast the car in front of me is going. In other words, riding my ass is going to do you no good because no matter how close you get to me, the car in front of me is not going to go any faster. Therefore, it is not possible for me to go any faster either. Because quite frankly, I don't care how much of a hurry you are in. I am not going to plow the person in front of me off the road to clear the way for you.

So BACK OFF! (Or change lanes. All the freeways in this area have more than one to choose from. Unless, of course, they are blocked by an accident that was most likely caused by someone like you).

Thanks!
Heather
