Dumb Dumb Dumb......

And the "Dumb Ass" Award of the day goes to...........

Have you ever seen something you weren't quite sure you really..truly..saw it?? I know, YOU KNOW what I mean!!! This morning, I awoke having great hopes for how today would go.....since yesterday turned out SOO freakin' miserable, it SERIOUSLY had no choice BUT to get better!!! =) I did my usual routine....shower, hair, myspace, make-up........typical girl stuff. Believe it or not...all went off with out a hitch!! YEAH ME!! I even got out the door on time!! YIPPEEE!!!

Any of you that REALLY know me can pretty well guess what my first stop in the morning is........anyone???......ANYONE???.....Okay, since I really can't hear you....I'll tell those of you that don't......My first stop in the morning, EVERY MORNING, is Quiktrip....Yep...good ol' QT. You see, I am a serious caffeine addict. I drink on average (the low side of said average..) about 148 ounces of Ice Tea daily....that's a typical work day, off days are much higher. Chances are...if you see me, you see my 52oz QT cup =). I've been told my bladder will fall out one day....We'll see...

This morning, I decided to take the scenic route to work...down Highway 141. Soooo....I decided to stop at the QT right past Hwy 21 on Hwy 141 (too many numbers??? Am I confusing you??). If any of you have ever been there...there's an odd sort of people that go in and out of there....questionable gene pool to begin with in my opinion. This morning sealed that thought for me.....

I went in and fought the masses to get my 2 caffeine fixes...a 52oz tea and a 44oz one. I hear you ALL gasping...trust me on this, if I could get two 52oz cups to fit in my Jeep cup holders, I would have two of them instead....ANYWAY...I paid for my tea and walked out to the car. By the time I got out there was no cars parked in like 8 spots around me....cue the village idiot...As I am trying to get into my Jeep with full hands, this beautiful tri-colored Chevy S-10 (by tricolored, I mean red, rust, and a foreign grey bumper) decides he wants to park right next to me on my driver's side. Now keep in mind there are at LEAST 8 other spots, but dude wants this particular one. I have my door half open and he is so close to the line on the passenger side, he would actually hit my door if I opened it. He's waiting so NOT patiently for me to get in, he keeps inching closer.....closer....closer. His wonderful little S-10 looks like no one would notice if he hit something else. It also has amazingly tinted windows...you almost can't see in. I start my Jeep and look over. Out steps grease ball, he looks like the word soap isn't even in his vocabulary. Not to mention the word shampoo. He had enough grease in his hair to fry everything at Micky D's for the day....EWWWW!!!

He walks towards the door. I look down to put away my money. Out of the corner of my eye, I see the tri-colored wonder backing up.......my first thought - guess he didn't need to go here tooo terribly bad, he's already leaving. JERK. Then I look straight ahead...grease ball is going IN the door of QT......before I go any further, I need to tell you one other tid bit about me. One or two of you may already know this...If I was riding in a car with you, and you weren't paying attention and were inches from connecting bumper to bumper with someone....I am not the one that's going to yell - "HEY, LOOK OUT". Nope, not I. I am the one the freezes, can't talk and won't move. If I'm holding hands with you, you may suddenly get a death grip. THAT IS ALL YOU WILL GET!!!

back to the story......

As I see Mr. McGreasy going in the door.....it takes me a second but it registers.....truck moving backwards.....grease ball outside of said truck....NO ONE IN SAID TRUCK!!! I look over and sure enough, unless some ghostly creature was driving.....Mr. Greasy Dumb ass didn't put the freakin' emergency brake on.....rolling out of the parking spot is the truck. I sat there dumbfounded...it was probably like half a second, but it felt way longer. I wanted to yell - "HEY DUDE"! but I couldn't. So I tapped my horn once, twice......dude did not even look up....FINALLY I laid on the horn. He looked dead at me like - "WHAT?!?!" He didn't even notice his ride was rolling on without him. I pointed at the truck and it took a second for him to register what HE was seeing.....By that time the truck was headed towards the gas pumps. He had to run to get it. He gets in and pulls it back up to the parking spot. I just sat there shaking my head. I watched him get out again, that's when I noticed he was wearing a uniform........wanna guess where dumb ass award winner works??? Come on......you're not going to believe it........

Wait for it.......

Wait for it......>>>>>

DOBBS!!!!

Ya know......I don't think I'll be taking my JEEP there any time soon........=)
