Holiday Insanity?

[SeaCat]

So the wife and I went shoppin today. We had a few things like food to pick up. Thankfully nothing Christmas related. ( still have one last present to pick up, for my mother. Unfortunately I have absolutely no idea what to get her this year.)

Well we hit the grocery store and picked up what we needed then left. Because we didn't have anything frozen or even chilled among our purchases we decided to hit the bookstore. A quick stop there and off we went again.

AS we were heading home we were stopped at a stop light. Nothing new there. We were downtown after all. Sitting in the far right lane I had a clear view out the left window at the traffic coming up behind us. (Clean mirror.) Behind me I see a Mercedes coming up to the light smoking up a storm. If I had to guess I would say a cracked Head Gasket. As I watch this car jukes towards us then to the left. I'm wondering what's up then watch in shock as it blasts, or attempts to blast through between two cars. I hear a screeching sound as it pushes through into the intersection. It banks right with it's tires smoking and takes off closely followed by both cars it had scraped past. I reckon the holiday insanity has started.

Anything on the news about a bank robbery?

They'll need to rob a bank to fix that sauerkraut sled.

LOL. I've seen crazy things going on here and attributed it to the bad weather. Though, last night I calmed down a near riot in the WalMart electronics section. People were getting angry and snippy because they needed things out of the locked cases and all the clerks were very busy. I was like, "Hey, let's be nice to the clerk and form a line, please!" Maybe I should've been a cop....

I now have images of you frisking people

The people in the grocery store today were nuts. Thankfully when the trolley was hit twice minx was up in the seat having a ride and not down walking. And yes mommy had thought about severely telling people off but also didn't want to upset minx. So I settled for telling them to please watch out and gave them some really nasty looks. All of this over people going after gifts.

I saw two couples nearly come to blows in a checkout line at Kohl's the other night. It was late though. The store was open until midnight. Anyway, not sure what these folks were arguing over.

Real possible the Mercedes was stolen and/or someone was out for a joyride... I once saw a pretty brown Boxster run a red light and ram someone in the intersection-- the driver was out of the car and sprinting away faster than my eyes could follow.
