Okay, I'm momentarily speechless to see that someone besides my best friend (Miss Tamarita!!!) read some of my blog. Yeah!!!!! Extra exclamation points for everyone!!!!! Pass them around equally.
Alright, my momentary lapse of sanity is behind me...for the moment anyway. So I have to have at least one rant about the ludicrousness (is that a word?) of how the snow birds drive down here. In case you haven't read my previous post on the joys of driving in Florida during Season, please feel free to use this as a reference. It took me a whopping hour to get home last night. Generally the same drive takes between 20 and 30 minutes. Why the delay you ask? Accident? Construction? Nope, a whole crapload of people from the Great White North down here for their annual pilgrimage to the warm sunny weather of Florida. Average age of said pilgrims is roughly 900, and yet they're all still driving. Oh the horror. I managed to pass the single-file line of Lexuses, BMWs, Mercedes, etc. that the affluent masses tend to gravitate to and pass them at what felt like lightspeed, but in reality was a whopping 55 mph. How sad is that?
I think they do it on purpose. I'm not generally a conspiracy theorist, but when some little old lady cuts me off to drive 40 in a 55 zone, I think it's on purpose. I'm waiting for the stroke to hit.
Only 6 more months of this at life.sa.laugh@hotmail.com.
