This
week, I had the chance to travel around our fine little county! While very
little surprises me anymore, I did see a few things that I thought were worth
mentioning.
A
little known fact about me (well, maybe not so little known), is that I attract
weirdness and maybe some weirdoes too. I see the strangest things…that is the main
reason I started taking a camera with me everywhere I go.
What
I discovered this week…
There
is a replica of Boss Hog’s car –horns and all--cruising around Surfside
Beach.
Oh…did
I mention that the car is pink? I tried to get a picture for you, but I had to
think about my own safety over your happiness this time. Don't worry, I am
planning to stalk 544 for you this weekend. I will not be able to rest
until I snap a pic of that little beauty!
All
Wal-Mart stores DO NOT CARRY the same items.
I
guess that is not really news to you, or me, for that matter, but I would expect
stores in the same area to carry similar product lines. Unfortunately, just as
in life, my expectations and assumptions are usually wrong. However, I did luck
up and find this fine specimen of chevron awesomeness. Yes…I know chevron is
just about played out, but I think this will add the perfect touch to some of my
fall designs.
Some
styles are better suited for me than others.
I
found this little lovely at Wal-Mart. Honestly, I can’t explain it, but this
baby was calling my name and I couldn’t leave the store without it, especially since it was $3.88! Not sure if
it reminds me of my grandma or a flower shop or was just the best option that
was available at the time, but it made me smile. 
Jealous, right?
This,
on the other hand, was best left at the store. Not sure if it was in the wrong
location or in the wrong department all together. What do you really think I am
going to be able to put in there?
Chic-Fil-A
offers FACE TO FACE ordering (and it is awesome).
I swung by Chic-Fil-a in North
Myrtle for some yummy nuggets—really I just wanted the Polynesian sauce, but with sauce you must have a dipper, hence the nuggets. 
Anyway…when I pulled into the drive through, they had cones set out and these three poor pitiful employees were standing out in the heat taking orders. I assumed, incorrectly, that their drive through speaker must have been broken.
A guy motioned for me to pull forward to the next sweaty attendant (actually she wasn’t sweaty at all in the 105 degree heat---would love to know her secret).
She took my order, handed me this cute little order form and told me to pull around. The next gal, called in my order on her head seat. She told me my total and I continued to move along the
Two minutes tops and I had been served. AWESOME. Well, except for one thing…
My
car is apparently a sedan.
While
the gal with the headset was phoning in my order, she told her partner I was in
a white sedan. Really? A Sedan? That sounds like something old women drive.
Why couldn’t she just say "In the Honda"? I realize she was young and my car
probably wasn’t hip enough for her, but she didn’t have to resort to calling my
transportation a sedan. Maybe I should have asked
her for my senior discount too.
People
actually smoke or huff of whatever they do with Hookah while driving.
I kid
you not! I saw a painter guy in his painter van doing Hookah going down 17.
That was a first for me. I wanted a picture as proof, but once again worried
about my own safety. Keep your eyes peeled and you may just see it for yourself.
Please
people…don’t ask me what Hookah is – ask your children – they can tell you!
I
also learned…
Some
parents say the most repulsive things to their kids when they don’t think anyone
can hear them.
Our
road system sucks.
People
drive like aliens abducted their car (and their brains).
I
hate traffic.
I am
always glad to go HOME to my FAMILY!
My
wish for you this weekend is to make it fabulous. We all have millions of
things to get done in two short days, so make it count!
Remember:
If you see me stalking you, you might just end up on my blog!
Lots
of love!
