...So I am at A&P one day, and as I leave the store to go back to my vehicle, there is this lady standing by the back of my van
yakking on her phone. She has her
son with her. He is probably 12 or 13 years old. He is wearing green double knit shorts, a pink, button down, short sleeve shirt, braces, tube socks, brown leather shoes, and he is holding mom's pocket book. Anyway, I had to walk around this lady to get into my van, as she is blocking my way. As I pull the key fob out of my pocket, and unlock the door, the kid looks at me as you hear the locks in the van pop up. His mother is paying no mind to this, and continues to
yak on her phone. So I get in the van, and start the engine, but she is still standing next to my van, and if I move, I will hit her. So I give her a hint that I am about to move by revving the engine a little...nothing...still gabbing away. By now the kid is trying to get his mother's attention, but tapping her arm only causes her to wave him off. So I rev the gas again...nothing...again. The kid is still trying to get her to move out of the way. He goes to grab her arm, but she just throws him off, and moves away from him. Unfortunately, she moves directly behind my van. Most people would probably be honking the horn, but not me. Anybody ever look at their key fobs? You see that little red button on there? It's called a panic button, and YES I DID!! I Hit that sucker, and all the bells and whistles and horns were just a
blowin. As I look in my
rear view, I notice that I managed to get this lady's attention, as first she ducks, then she jumps, and finally runs to her son and grabs him. Meanwhile, this kid is flat against their car, and his face looks like he got caught in a deep freeze while laughing. He was so hysterical, all he could do was stand there with his mouth wide open, holding his stomach, in a frozen laugh.
As I begin to back out, I open my window and I say to the lady, "I think he was trying to tell you to move". Man...I am such an ass sometimes.
