Channeling your inner Britney?
I was pulling up to the kids school today, listening to one of the local radio station’s morning show, and they were talking about how Britney has YET AGAIN run over some photographer’s foot with her car. Crazy bitch! You’d think they’d get the point though, right? So I got the kids out, and we all lined up and held hands in a long chain, so we could cross the street together. And the mom of one of Mallory’s classmates came BARRELING down the street so fast, it scared the crap out of me and I pushed all the kids back toward the curb. She slowed down for a second, waved, and then kept going. Man, it pissed me off!! I guess she was running a wee bit late, but dude? It’s an elementary school. There are kids everywhere. Slow DOWN a little. And if you see a mom and her FOUR children trying to cross, STOP FOR THEM. It’s common courtesy! I wanted to say something when I saw her in the classroom, but I held my tongue. I did give her a mean hairy eyeball, though.

A mean hairy eyeball? HAHAHAHAHAA!
That just drew up the BEST visual. LMAO.
I live in between three schools, two elementary and one High School. It continually amazes me how many people are just oblivious to the school zones and their speed limits.
I had some jackass on my tail the other day all pissed off because I was only doing 15 MPH. HELLO? Blinking signs, signposts AND it is painted on the road!! How much more does one need?
Guh. Glad you all did not get mowed down, seriously.

I hate people that rush like that, especially around kids!
If they drive like that around teenagers, I don’t mind as much.

Talk about self control! haha – One time I chased a car (me on foot) b/c he didn’t stop for me in the Old Navy parking lot and Mya was 1 and Junior was a few weeks old. My poor sis had to witness it but now we have times like that to laugh our asses off.

did you hold your tongue while wearing your big ass “i have a hall pass to be late badge?” b/c if you would have yelled at her with that thing on, she might have laughed at you
glad you all are in one piece and no one’s foot was run over.
