Road Trip

It's not often that I actually go out of town with Mike and of all things, during daylight hours!!!

Saturday I picked him up at 7 am and we headed down to Albany.
He had training for work that he had to go to by 9 am.

I dropped him off and headed to Clifton Park. I was actually looking for the Home Depot but couldn't seem to find it so I stopped at Borders book store and got lost in all the wonderful reading materials at my disposal.

I can just spend hours upon hours there. I actually prefer Barns and Noble better.

I made my selections and checked out. As I'm entering my car I hear my VM go off which I figured was Mike letting me know he was done with training. (I'm sure he would love for me to let you all know he works for a "oil company") I'm not getting into that right now.

Heading back home we planned to grab something quick to eat and on our way got stuck in the most horrific traffic back up ever!

Inching little by little. it seemed we weren't moving at all at times. And not only that but I had to go to the bathroom in the worst way!

I thought my bladder was going to explode! Mike mentioned he had to go too but in a different way. So I told him to go run in the woods (I had some paper napkins in the glove compartment) and meet me at the other end. The pace of the traffic he would probably beat me!

So we gabbed a bit and as I happened to look over there was this truck with a Gigantic Hippo on it. Big Smiling Hippo! It was for Party Rentals.

It seemed to be following us for a while. We pretended to have a race with the hippo. First the hippo was ahead then we pulled a head....back and fourth for a while. The things we do to keep ourselves amused!
