We took a wrong turn today and saw this... I had my friend back up so I could take a picture.  He says that he is really tempted to buy one, just so he could make it look like this.

"I had a flat today on my way to lunch."

This sentence completely fails to convey the mind-numbing stretch of minutes and hours WAITING for other people to DO THINGS.  Mysterious things.  Expensive things.  But clearly things that should Not Take This Long.

Ugh.

In the mirror, I see the police car. I'm fine, everything's fine, we are all traveling down the road.... And then I notice that my inspection sticker expired last month!

Well, as long as he is behind me, he'll never notice. ...Ack! He is pulling into the left lane! ....But I need to be in the left lane! No, no, this will be fine, just signal and pull in front of him... Nice and easy.... Everything is fine... Ack! Yellow light!!! That just turned red as I braked through the intersection. Fourletterword.

I am So Caught.

Maybe if I hide in other traffic before he can find me? I mean, it isn't like I'm driving The Most Noticeable Car Ever! ... Oh, that's right, I am.

Note to self: Get new inspection sticker immediately.

For the curious: Yes, I got away.

I've been renting cars for years. Many years. A scary number of cars. I've rented cars that I cannot even pronounce. I've rented cars so wonderful that I walked away from the agency wondering, "what the heck were they thinking, giving me a car like this?!"

Today, I requested a compact. They gave me a PT cruiser. *snort/laugh* What were they thinking?! Isn't this some kind of suburban?

I protested to the rental car guy when he pointed it out to me. "No, they clearly asked if I wanted a compact, and I said 'yes!'"

"This is a compact," he assured me.

"You are kidding me!"

He wasn't. I'm now driving, at least for a few days, a PT cruiser. How silly can this get? A compact?! *slightly hysterical giggle*
