...it's great bit of levity in a grim situation....
I have slept like a rock the last 2 nights. I guess the cure to my insomnia is little people! 😄😄
But if I'm not right, yes I want to know the rest!
About a year ago I was attending some work based training, during one of the days our manager was running a workshop and we'd been sitting for a couple of hours (yep, you see where this is going) so at lunch time he suggested we "spread" our legs instead of "stretch" them. Of course we all lost it. 😄
Fast forward a year to our current lockdown, Chris as you see in the video there, made the same mistake.
The next day my coworker, our client and I had to meet our manager at head office to pick up some more PPE, so I sent him a txt message:
"We've just hit town, meet you at the front door if you're feeling up to some exercise. "
And I attached one of the aforementioned COVID-19 images. (the less racy one ! 😳😁)
i just had the most glorious where’s-a-cop moment. I am sitting in our local Michaels craft store parking lot relaying this to you in real time, like those helicopter guys who report traffic news during gridlocked morning rush hour.
Anyway, i’m driving down the road, 2 lanes same way. I’m going speed limit. And what happens? Speed racer comes zooming up on my ass. So, guess what i do? I pace the car next to me also going the speed limit. Get the picture? We’re blocking Andretti behind us. He’s drafting my 35 mile per hour wind.

Not exactly the same thing but Scott got into it with some lady at Walmart yesterday. He took my car and parked behind a big suv of some kind. They had pulled through the spot, so the front of my car was facing the back of their suv. But not close, there was room between the vehicles.
When he came back out, the lady who belonged to the suv was standing there, fuming. She says to him, "Why would you park there? Did you not see my vehicle? Did you not think that maybe I might need to get the back open?"
He shot back at her that she was the one who had pulled through into that spot and that she had plenty of room to open the back of her vehicle to get her groceries in. She gave him the finger. Sigh. When did we all become so entitled? I just don't get it.
And in other news, Evan got rear ended at a red light yesterday. He is fine, the other kid is fine. His car will need some work but it really was not much more than a fender bender. He was hot under the collar, let me tell you.
Spencer fell asleep on the couch. Gave him a bath this morning. I need to do a few chores, maybe run out for a new coffee pot. Ours quit Monday. Been using a little 4 cup one out of the camper but missing a nice 12 cup one. And both my kids need dividers for binders for school but that is all the "extra" school stuff they need.
Need to pick Ali up from band later and get Sage to soccer. Brandon and Marti had a great time at the concert. They will be headed home tomorrow.
i told him, i did absolutely nothing wrong. I can’t help it that me and the guy next to me decided to go the speed limit. Actually, the guy next to me was about 37 miles per hour because my front end was even with his back end — no way Andretti was getting through that.
And I am all that you described behind the wheel when it comes to dickhead drivers, but throw in the odd horn barp and bird flip too... though, these are reserved for the pricks that constantly try to take me out on one particular intersection.
The same intersection that nearly got my kid killed walking to school one day.
The same intersection that did get my 2nd cousin killed about 30 years ago.
We don't have every 3rd person packing heat here, so there's probably a fair amount more verbalising and gesturing going on.
