Stoplight Utterances

This morning, on my way to work, I pulled up by a Jeep bearing a bumper sticker that stated: Marriage = (man bathroom figure) + (woman bathroom figure).

I tend to mutter to myself in the car, so as I was sizing up the driver - a white guy decked out in bus-cas - I was talking to myself. More specifically, I clearly said "dumbass" just as this guy finally noticed that I was staring at him. And then I couldn't stop staring....I was transfixed and enraged by this totally bland guy with a stupid bumper sticker.

I might also be hopped up on frappucino. (Yes, I know it's sad that I can get hopped up on a store-bought, packaged "coffee" drink.)

I'm totally not the car-keying type of person, but recently I was SO tempted to scratch the HELL out of a Hummer at the gym that had one of those horrid marriage stickers on it. What a moron/jerk.

Just found your blog through Yarn Boy's site, and I thought I would say hello. Nice blog you've got here!
