Rude tendencies and funny outcomes

Not only does one have to contend with the numerous of nosey strangers peering over my shoulder to get a glimpse at what I'm doing on my laptop, but I also have to endure their stares because of the eavesdropping. I've said it only once before, but it seems that I should say it more often, "Do you mind? It's extremely rude to be listening in on my conversation."

It can be funny because I'm not talking very loud, hence their need to really concentrate on listening to me; their furrowed brows and blank-looking stares at the stain on the wall. I do my best at no talking loud. When I find myself raising my voice, I usually walk away or go to the privacy of my car.

I may have been one of those people you see, locked in their car and yelling on the phone. I’ve seen it and usually begin to start laughing at the animated actions of the stranger. It is also the same when you see a person walking and talking with themselves. Now days, it is more likely that they are not the crazy lunatic that escaped from the local Psyche hospital but more likely just a dude talking on a hands-free device plugged into their ear.

We have all encountered these people; you think they are talking to you, you answer them but they don’t respond back to you. It’s because they are not talking to you...oooh just got burned! You think to yourself, “great, they could’ve waved or pointed to their ear-piece...” Maybe this little display made you look like an idiot, but we’ve all been through it.

Here is a great excuse to walk around like a lunatic. It is a also great way to annoy strangers and keep people away from you. Especially those “watchtower” seniors who want you to stop your stride to talk to them...um, just as rude!

A healthy start...

In my attempts to get healthier, my friend and I began walking. This day, we walked on Kailua beach and the water was super crowded with kite surfers. With the wind and rain, we walk down the beach. With so many kite surfers in the water, I thought they looked like Iwa birds.

Back in the day, before the world knew about kite surfing, I watched this lone guy sail up and down Kailua beach. At the time I thought, "This guy is a genius. Who the heck is he? Whoa he's getting major aerials out there!" Soon enough, I learnt that it was Robby Naish. Well, I'm not suprised. I'd like to say that I was one of the first to witness the sport in the making. Now...the waters are infultrated with so many kite surfers, it looks a bit crazy. I wonder, with the amount of people out there, a regular boater can't make there way through. Well, tuff sh** for them I guess.

So back to the exercise regime...well, I guess it's not much of an exercise when our water bottles are filled with New Castle and a Vodka cocktail. What the hell...we will persevere and make it to the trails of Daimond Head.

The Golden Opulence Sundae....really?

Yes folks, you are actually seeing the cost of a fracking ice cream sundae, being served at the acclaimed eatery Serendipity. How can they even suggest a $1000 priced dessert? According to their website, you must order this in advance and reservations are required. Really? I can't even imagine the calorie intake; probably enough to last you a week. Opulence they call it, I say insane! It's ludicrous to imagine such an extravagence. A dessert that will be done in a matter of minutes can pay for one months rent, two months worth of gas, a bunch of Coach purses, even two pairs of nicely expensive shoes. Get real folks!
