There is something crazy going on up here in Canada. By some miracle of Mother Nature winter ended over night, spring was skipped entirely, and we landed head first…(white unshaven legs and all)….right smack into summer. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining, I ADORE summer, (and am trying very hard not to let the over thinker in me freak out because seriously, what is wrong with the world that we can skip an entire season? Will Global Warming KILL us all?)
So where was I? Oh yah! Summer is here, so what did I do? I became the obnoxious girl who decided it was a-okay to put the top down on the car! Woot woot. Convertible top down in March! Setting records people, and I am one crazy happy Canadian girl!
Until…people started….irritating me.
Um, there was the random shout of “Hey Babe, Nice Car!” Truth, I kind of liked freakin loved this attention until I noticed it was a SIXTEEN year boy child yelling it at me. Ick factor. Where`s your Daddy boy? Let’s talk to him! Sigh. I so do not have what it takes to make it as a Cougar.
Ashes flying from the Volkswagen in front of me and landing in my pretty car! Ahhh! BUTT out. That is disgusting. Not only that, now I’m the girl talking to strangers in their cars!
Oh, and to the pack of little bicyclists who felt the need to run the stop sign and ride their bikes right in front of my car causing me to jam on my breaks. Yes, that was me yelling at you that your Mama’s would not be happy with your irresponsible behaviour!
It’s official…the weather has turned this Mama into a disciplining strangers from the car, fighting the cougar within, sun loving, top down crazy Canadian girl!
Look out…it’s gonna be a long summer.
You brighten my day with your post,i love them !!
I was also enjoying the balmy weather last week in New York. While cruising around in my husband’s black, Mustang convertible, a young guy coolly pulled up next to me at a red light. He said “nice car” in a slightly flirtatious tone and I felt my cheeks turning red! Didn’t he realize he was addressing a 40-year-old mother of three? Perhaps between the car, my sunglasses, and the fact that I sit pretty low in the driver’s seat fooled him. Long live the convertible as an answer to any mid-life crisis!
lol so funny! you still look like a teen that boy probably thought you were in his class, not the same age as his teacher! lol
Maybe there is a reason for Spring, people can ease into summer and not be so crazy!
LOL I totally hear you on global warming killing us all. This freakish weather is totally giving me an anxiety attack!
