Gear Grinding 10: F-You! F-You! F-You! You're cool! F-You! I'm Out!

I ordered some merch from the Minnesota DFL to add to my donation and get a little swag the SO can wear and tick off her parent's neighbor who is a hardcore Evangelical. Ordered it 3 weeks ago, supposed to be delivered today. Click on the tracking information and see it is in...FRESNO! Now I admit I only teach Geography I am not an expert but Fresno is nowhere near Minnesota. So I investigate and I find out that the DFL runs their site through a company in Austin, TX who fulfils all the orders. (nothing like outsourcing jobs Minnesotans could have...but I digress) Fine, but you can drive from Austin to Minneapolis on literally 1 road in 17 hours. Hell you can walk it in like 18 days! And you know what you never have to phucking do...GO THROUGH PHUCKING CALIFORNIA!!

The best part is not just that it is currently in Fresno, but it has literally been through most of the Golden State. It stopped in LA, Santa Clarita, San Francisco and now of course Fresno. It has now seen more of California than I have!

The Minnesota DFL is not going to see much money from in the near future...

Had a moment the other day at my daughter’s appointment with an eye specialist. The tech was running the usual tests and then started going over the file. The tech, a female, asked my wife “and I assume you’re mom?” to which my wife replied yes. She then looked at me and asked “and what is your relationship?” I very coldly responded “I’m dad.” and was silently pretty upset from that point on.

My wife could not really understand why I was pretty upset. My daughter however did say “that was pretty rude.”
