 I notice the most mundane things
Last night driving home from work I was stuck at what seemed to be the worlds longest red light.  While I'm stuck at lights I like to find ways to entertain myself.  Sometimes I succeed and sometimes I end up sitting there cleaning my finger nails or guessing how many seconds it will be before the light changes again.  Yelling NOW to see if I'm totally on the spot with my psychic skills - lets just say I won't be asked to join the Psychics of America anytime soon.
So last night I was at this light and one of my most favorite things to focus my attention on are gas stations.  This holds totally true when there are cars in the parking lot, getting gas, or people just running in for that lil bit of something extra they just can't do without.  I like to play "Match the Car Owner".  Basically I match people up to which car I think they belong with.  Note: This game DOES not work if they are pumping gas, obviously you know what car they belong to.  I wont lie, I'm often shocked to see the rich hoity toity looking woman get into the old beat up rust bucket that's being held by prayers and a crap load of duct tape. 
One thing that I enjoy watching are the really hot girls who are pumping their own gas.  I love how they try to appear so completely cavalier and oblivious to their hotness - all the while you can tell they are sucking in and checking themselves out in the reflection of their window.  Once I spot said hot chick, I start looking at the cars around me - I look for the people who are also checking out the hot chick.  You can often find one guy this close (please note that I'm holding my fingers like 1 inch part) from full on licking their window.
Congratulations hotty!  Mission accomplished.

This morning driving to work I was cruising along bee bopping along to Cindi Lauper on the radio (I see your true colors shining through - yeah I'm singing it again) and I saw this chocolate colored man in this neon orange shirt cruising along on a ten-speed.  No I didn't say car, I said TEN-SPEED.  What I loved about this guy is he did his damn-est to make it seem like this was/is the cool thing to do.  I get all the honies on this bad boy.  Wanna pick up a hottie at the gas station??  Hop on the handle bars honey - I'll give you a ride.  Or better yet, can you put my bike in your trunk?  No that's not code for a lil back door lovin, my legs are tired and this neon orange sweater makes my chest look fat.

Ok I'm not exactly sure what the above paragraph was, I think I kinda went off on my own little thing.  Perhaps I need some sinus medication?  I have that loopy little disconnected head thing going on.  Too much sugar?  From my coffee?    Maybe.

I think I'll um do some work because I'm feeling myself getting even more scattered than normal, and that says something.  Or maybe it doesn't?  Whatev.

Me too Monica. I could seriously make a day out of watching people. My twin sister and I like to create lives for them. We often make people drug addicts or alcoholics just trying to fake it for public while out with their kids.

In the car I wonder how many people are on their way home to an empty house. Who has a prison record. Who is on the run from the cops. Who has just been dumped.

Wow Whit, those sure are some cheery thoughts.

Red lights, What a good subject. I love red lights, Not because i like stopping every 15 feet, seems like it anyway. Just waiting to see the person useually infront of me get T-boned by the driver trying to get through the yellow light befor it turns red. Yup, around here, as soon as that light turns green some people need to go now. I usually wait till someone behind me honks their horn at me.

LOL - I usually try to count to 10 before I go on green. Though I confess, sometimes I count REALLY fast.
Cute kids in your avatar

How much time wasted away waiting for things like lights and such. I mean if you were to add it up over a life time. At least you try to get something out of each moment.
Thanks for sharing. Very funny.

GOD! Stop stalking me! What kind of weirdo would follow me around and watch me pump gas? And that guy was not licking his window for me, he spilled soda on it and didn't have a napkin.

you remind myself of some Frustating times fresh out of school the pizza place that I WORKED That BECOME A TOPPLESS BAR and I turn 18 but before after morning classes in high school the seniors if we had jobs was allowed to left schooli would catch the buss back to the Air Force base and race to the pizza place for the lunch hour
to find sometimes the place still lock up with the owner and another co-worker asleep on the pool tables and the pizza joint with only a beer license having men breaking down the door at 12noon for the stuff... Men freshly back from Viet-Nam
