I have to dig out my rubber arm band

I took Sam and the dogs to the park. Let me disclaim that not only did I have MSG at lunch (something that I should and do avoid because it puts me something way beyond a mood.) but I also tore a good chunk of my finger nail off today. (I believe good chunk is the unit of measure to use when there is blood involved. There was some blood. Not much so just barely a good chunk.) It's sunny. Yes I know I fucking live in Seattle it's not s'pose to be. Well it was and it was in the 50's. So everybody and their motherfucking dog showed up at the park. I forgot these are not the days to go to the park. Parking was crazy. I was patient despite the aforementioned MSG and still people were stealing spots. Made me wish I had a big fuck of Rottie instead my crazed aussies. You took my space? Not really. I ended up with a good spot. I almost didn't have to leash them going in, but I like to be a good citizen when it comes to most things including my dogs. Can I just interject that typing with a good chunk of one's fingernail gone and a flex strip (tm) finger bandage in its place still hurts. I'm off course again. I forgot it was amateur day at the park. First nice day of the season and all. Or last maybe if you're aware of the fact that it is still winter. So there was more growling, mounting of other dogs (and I would imagine the unsuspecting human.) and general mayhem. Whatever. It's not the dogs that bug me. I like dogs. I hate people. If dogs are stupid you can just blame the people. People are stupid and you blame who? I'm an Atheist so blaming god is just right out. Like the number 5. So I go to pull out of my good spot and this woman in an outback is just dying to get my spot. To be fair it might be her last run at the park as she looked old enough not to buy green bananas (I don't actually know how old she looked I just like the whole not buying green bananas bit.) but god damn she was gonna get that spot. Didn't seem to matter if she made it impossible for me to get the fuck out of her way. Stupid. So fine. With some gesturing (I didn't quite make a maneuver out of it.) I made it out of that part of the park. Yes it's a big fuck off park.

We went to the kid part. I thought well at least I don't have stupid amateur dog owners. NOOOOO we have stupid fuck off parents. I love the middle age software nerds like myself with little kids who are losing the hair in the front so they compensate by having a sixties (sometimes even grey) ponytail running around chasing little Aubrey or whateverthefuck her name is. Dude I'm a middle aged software geek but at least I know when to get a fucking haircut. Better than that even was the kid swinging with his brother pushing trying to hit this defiant little girl who was just barely out of range. They were seriously trying to kick her face. Nice. I surmised but only a little later the parents of these lovely children were no where around. When they arrived they thought the attempted kicking was funny, but we have to go now so don't tell me just a minute get in the car. Which was I can't make this up responded with the little shit pushing and the little shit swinging, "just a minute."

I hate people. Where is my rubber wrist band? On it enraged it says, "misanthrope."

I read something wrong.
