Smart Cars...Really?

Florence Nightingale is in the building. Jimmy's father is in the hospital with blood clots in his leg. At 90 yrs. old, the man is recovering from colon surgery, where they removed 3 sections due to large masses. He was just starting to show signs of recovery when this comes along. The doctors need to now put in a mesh to catch the blood clots when they dislodge. Hopefully this is a small bump in the road and he'll be out by Saturday. Of course, me being the selfless caregiver (It's my blog, so get over it or write your own). So where was I? Oh yeah, me being the selfless caregiver got Joe checked into the hospital last night and out to visit him with Miss Kitty today, while Jimmy toils away in Dallas for work. Joe has taken the news like a trooper, which I think is only dependant on his being out by Saturday. I hope when I hit 90, I'm as resilient as this man is. Yes I do know it was a crap shoot I made 45, so 90 is a pipe dream. During my hour of down time before I whisk of to the hospital again, I felt it necessary to keep my throngs (which I think is synonymous with 3) of adoring fans updated.

I have the god awful misfortune of continuously being behind the worst drivers in the world when I'm running late, which has been a common occurrence lately. I'm not God's gift to the Motor Vehicle, but consider myself above average. I literally will have an oil tanker move out of the way to have a school bus pull in, who in turn is cut off by a illegal limo (That's a landscaping truck, for the uneducated), and when they finally all clear there's the senior citizen and wife driving what appears to be in reverse, (they should be going directly to the cemetary; they might make it in time). Jimmy swears I'm a magnate for them. But seriously, where are the 90 yr olds in the grand marquis' going during rush hour? Why do women, who are already unable to control their SUV's, think they drive better on cell phones? Does the make-up you apply during driving actually help your appearance (to all the drag queens the answer is NO!)? and lastly should I.Q. tests be required for Smart cars. I mean seriously I'm not saying they are all idiots behind the wheel but they have an above average grouping. I, at first, thought that it was a requirement that all cars have a 50% quota, and since that car is already smart, the driver needs not be. But in the long run how smart can anyone be who would buy that car and then cut me off in my SUV. My Speed Racer sticker on the bumper isn't for looks; IT"S A WARNING!

Well my review of Julie and Julia will be tomorrow, and of course the wonderful company that joined me will be included. But for now my shout out goes to Anderson Cooper, who verbally bitch slapped Heidi Montag on air.
