From here to infirmary

<3 Alkaline Trio. Planning on checking out Tuesday.


December, slowest/longest month ever?! 31 days/nights, come on! And we're still only halfway through it. I would like to file a complaint but it would just end up on the pile.
Another month, another year, another planet please.

  • Not another planet yet but another city/country for efkes.

Musculation

So I was in France for a couple of days last month. Some things I noticed in traffic:

- French people only drive Citroën, Peugeot, Renault and Ford.
- The mountain speed limits are insane, 70 km/h on downhill roads barely wide enough to fit half a Twingo. And I'm not even mentioning what's next to those roads... Madness? This is France!
- However, the French drivers stick to the road signs. 90 down a suicide road = 90. 30 through a ghost town = 30.
- Frenchies don't give a fuck about their cars. On and on, reckless abandon.
- July = invasion of the Dutch and their "sleurhut".
- Péage, or how to freak out control freaks. The mentally-unstable's nightmare. Different kind of payment lanes are badly indicated, resulting in a 110+ cars/vehicles swapping lanes. Machines don't read tickets. Hollanders busting the gate with their oversized trailer. ....
