I don't even know what to say. You do a great job of rendering me speechless at times.

Consumer prices are now at a 13 year high, so there's that.

Just a few things that have spiked this year include:

food
vehicles
gas
lumber (though it's tapering off now)
global shipping (to and from the US)

Labor shortages that have been widely reported for months now have impacted various types of production and transportation. You can probably understand why tires are expensive, but depending on what kind you get, they've always been expensive. Try buying some 19" or 20" Michelin Pilot Sport 4s tires, or even worse, track specific tires.

Factor in that wages have remained stagnant for the past 10+ years as well. No raises or bonuses last year to "help" the company, took a 10% pay cut on top of it. Raises this year? Who the fuck knows, and now we've had 3 people at corporate quit this week, with one of my associates quitting due to being transferred from his assignment with my plant.

Which reminds me, need to buy rears for the red car....,

I confess that I stayed with "a friend" last night and the fact that she's still effectively using her really old queen bed sheets/blankets stretched over a king really annoys me. She makes six figures and her home is really nice, but she's too cheap to buy sheets?!?! I mean, come on…..these are the same sheets we used to exercise on two years ago. Ughhhh!

When you have to pluck them before you eat them, that hair becomes a mess.

First determination: She saved lots of money by using old sheets for the bed to buy the 8.

Further assumption: She must make much more money with...what? Not with selling shaved cat hair, thats for sure

Ewwww. How do even stretch queen to king? I have a king with a pillow top mattress pad and it’s a struggle to get my oversized king sheets on after a few washes. And the cat hair? OMG. Yuk! She must be agile. I’m thinking otherwise you would have bolted.

So maybe she hasn't washed them since your last round of "exercise" and only put them on because you were visiting? Could be a kinky thing she has going on.......
