Look both ways.

I couldn't quite wake up this morning. I parked in the shade with my coffee, the sun was especially bright and I was in no mood for it's positive attitude. I was 20 minutes early for work and decided to listen to NPR in my car as opposed to getting in early today.

A squirrel appeared from the brush and scampered across the cross walk. A moment later he made the return trip across the white painted lines, an acorn in his mouth.

I watched him and tuned out the radio program, thinking to myself that this squirrel is an upstanding citizen. Even I have a hard time obeying cross walks.

Wait, we don't have that many pink clothes.

Somehow Ted missed the home ec class where you learn not to put the new red throw rug in with your whites.

In other news I got a new sexy pink bra...
