did that just happen?

  • I was watching an early episode of the West Wing.  Charlie told a potential Supreme Court nominee that he used to caddy at Sandy Hook.  Whoa.
  • I went to Dick's Sporting Goods to exchange a pair of socks.  One pair of socks.  Ended up standing in line forever due to a young woman who I believe decided to return every single holiday gift she received.  And did I mention that every single holiday gift she received was purchased at Dick's Sporting Goods?  It was so painful.  Thankfully the kid was home with the babysitter.  I started chatting with a very nice man in line behind me.  We had lots of time to talk.  Here's the kicker, they didn't have the socks I wanted so I wasn't even successful with the exchange.  The man in line behind me had a quick exchange so we ended up walking out of the store together.  As we were walking toward my car I said, "well this is me." and he said, "Oh looks like I'm right next to you." and I shit you not, the only car next to mine was a Porsche Cayenne.  A very shiny and probably new Porsche Cayenne.  As I started to laugh because it was very funny, he said, "So maybe I can get your number?" and through my giggles I said, "I'm sorry, I'm not really very available. Thanks though..." and I got in my car and laughed even harder.  The thought of even knowing someone that drives that car, let alone giving my digits to someone that drives that car, was too much.  Then on my way home I realized that shit, if he actually owned that car I probably should have given him my number, address and all vital statistics.
