The Tank Is On "E"
So, I've been searching around in my head for something to blog about that is neither too boring nor too personal.
Guess what I came up with so far?
No... not more food blogging. Take another guess!
Uh uh... nope... not a blog about Hawai'i.
Are you really even TRYING??
One more... guess!!
Ding! Ding! Ding!!
Yep. You guessed it!
I have NOTHING to blog about!!
However, never let it be said that I didn't make a valiant effort. I'm pretty sure the beads of sweat on my forehead are from digging around in my own head for several solid minutes!!
I'm just too beat. I think I may even have heatstroke. I can't be sure but I feel like I've been broiled alive.
I was sitting in the Teen Taxi for over four solid hours today!!!
I drove and waited... and then waited some more... and did some reading (highly recommend 'The Name of the Wind' by Patrick Rothfuss) and watched a couple of episodes of "Reaper" on my old iPod.
Hey, at $4.42/gallon for gas and only getting 14 mpg.... I can't afford to go off and entertain MYSELF on these trips.
So, there I sit... sweltering!! Brewing up a batch of heatstroke.
Only ONE on my electric windows goes down anymore (thankfully the DRIVER'S window!) so there isn't much wind moving through. But, I did manage to find one scraggly little tree to park under for SOME shade.
After the second hour, I started to get really groggy and finally had to get out of the car to walk around because I could almost FEEL my brain cells dying as they were being baked.
I can only hope that the lifelong benefit to my children for going to these extra-curricular activities will outweigh the loss of thousands of my brain cells.
We shall see!!! :o)
