car trouble

Something was wrong with my car .. I’m not sure what it was, but it could only be fixed in England. I was still here in Austin, and the car was Germany. Why you’d take a Volkswagen out of Germany to England to have it fixed is a mystery. So anyway, this mechanic (who I remember as being not exactly British) drove my car from Germany to England. Once it was fixed, I got a call (I think) that it was done, but I’d have to come get it myself. I don’t why he couldn’t just drive it back to Germany where he got it in the first place. … and that’s when I woke up.

It took me a few minutes to convince myself that my car was in good working condition and parked in the lot outside my apartment.

in the parking lot, some guy on a cell phone:
".. yeah, I like the blue fuzzy one too .."

Grabbed lunch at Thundercloud today .. I love the signs they have up on the wall behind the counter:

If you’re on a cell phone, you’re not in line

.. and ..

Cell phones make you invisible
