Random Tuesday Thoughts

We were driving to work today and a car darted into traffic from a driveway. Donnie stopped and the car entering traffic stopped with the front half of the car in our lane and then honked at us. The driver then shook his finger at us, pulled up to Donnie’s window, rolled his window down and said, “Slow down, asshole” then called us several other names (which really makes one wake up at the early morning hour) and then pulled away. Um, Mister Friendly, WE had the right of way on the street…YOU were pulling into traffic and trust me we weren't speeding. Sigh…

Favorite recent facebook posting: My nephew is 14 and around 3pm one day he updated his profile to show that he was “in a relationship.” At 7pm that same night another update appeared that he was “single.” Ah, young love.

New favorite Bug-ism: if I tell him something that begins “when I was a little girl” he corrects me, “No, Mommy, you’re funny, you mean when you were a little boy.”

I’m off to see the Black Eyed Peas tonight in a luxury box! (I think this is my first non-Bruce concert in 16 years.) I won tickets at a silent auction to see the Rockettes Christmas Spectacular but the performance was canceled because of the 17” of snow we had that weekend. So…I was offered a choice of other performances and I selected the Black Eyed Peas over the Harlem Globetrotters. I decided to wear a funky dress that I can only describe as my I Dream of Jeannie dress because it would be perfect to wear if Jeannie were hosting a party with her hippie groovy 1970s friends, which would no doubt shock Major Nelson when he arrives home from his astronaut duties.
