We had an eventful lunch at McDonald's the other day:

- A chair was stuck and Abigail looked underneath it and said, "I need a screwdriver."

- Someone had the bright idea of putting what amounts to a squeeky dog toy in a little girl's shoes, they squeeked with every step she took. Seriously who would let their kid wear them, let alone actually buy them? I was annoyed with them just listening to this little girl run around for five minutes. (And I thought those light-up shoes were bad.)

- Abigail saw a guy in a construction vest and said, "Look, Imagination Movers!"

Too Funny

So I'm driving home from church this morning and I come to an intersection that a lot of people turn right at. This car stops at the stop sign and then pulls out right in front of me. I was going straight and he turned left from the side street on the right, right across my path. It wasn't one of those adrenaline rushing through your body, slamming on the brakes kind of close calls but if I hadn't been paying attention I totally would have T-boned this car. And I just started busting out laughing it was so funny. He looked pretty embarrassed as he nodded and waved that he was sorry, but this is what happens when people don't use their turn signals. You've sat there waiting so many times for someone who it turns out is making a turn but didn't use their signal that you start to expect that cars are turning with or without a signal. I tend to be a pretty cautious driver and I'm sure people sitting behind me get annoyed when I don't go because someone isn't using their turn signals but better safe than sorry.

Oh yeah, the reason this whole thing was funny, the car that pulled out in front of me, was an MP.
