Friendly little town
January 24, 2011
My car died in the middle of the intersection on the way to
work this morning. Yes, not how I wanted to have my day start.
Learned a
lot though...people must be pretty darn busy...no one even stopped to see if I
needed help. Three town trucks even passed by...that "safety first"
on the side of their trucks doesn't apply if you are in the middle of an
intersection I guess. Even a police officer drove right by...chivalry is
dead!
Hmmpf!
Although I did get a lot of people that pulled up behind me...and once
they realized I wasn't going to move (I'm betting the hazard lights gave it
away) they threw their arms up at me, so at least I knew I wasn't invisible. I
was really starting to get concerned about that. When they drove past
and glared at me, as if thinking I really wanted to be stranded in the middle
of the intersection, I'd like to think that was there way of saying have a good
day.
At least my husband came to get me, right before my tears
froze to my cheeks. Kidding, sort of. My knight in shining...wait, ok somewhat
rusty pick-up truck...but hey my knight none the less! Whoo Hoo! Made it
through Monday!
