New Jersey Turnpikewe took a ride yesterday, about 1 1/2 hrs from
were i live, a friend of mine had
a job to do, so i took the ride with him
it was a beautiful day to do so, NJ has
very pretty landscaping along our highways
we were listening to the "Jersey Boys" cd
as it is one of our favorite cd's
i am really not one for long rides, however
it was quite enjoyable
well somewhat!
it seems i need several bathroom breaks
not really sure why, however we can stop
5 times in five hrs, i just look over at him
and he knows, "next food stop" and i say "yes"
what i get a kick out of is, it does not seem
to faze him in the least, he just laughs it
off!
next comes, from me "i am hungry"
he says "next food stop" and i say
"well it depends on what they have"
as i am picky, not just one fast food place
will do, it has to be somewhat "healthy"
we pass a couple and then i see "roy rogers"
"thats it, thats it, roast beef" so we pull in
oh my goodness masses of people are all
over the place, the gas line was so long i
stared in disbelief, inside was no better
lines, lines, line, everywhere! i froze!
crowds, lines, unknowns, throw me off
he steers me to the "roy rogers"
i see no roast beef, i am about to panic
when he says "they are probably making
the roast beef" oh thank goodness....
he was right, we took our roast beef sandwiches
and found a table to sit at! hmmm..is this
roast beef? i was really not sure, however so
hungry i was, i just ate it!
the crowds grew larger, and i wanted out,
we left, and as i was walking out and looking back
it occurred to me that these people do this all
the time, driving all over, stopping on the turnpike
standing in lines, waiting, waiting, waiting....
and gas, expensive? people not on the roads?
well what is that all about, the gas line was a mile
long!!!!
when we finally pulled out, i noticed a sign
"no idling allowed, fine $250.00"
what the heck does that mean, i ask
"fumes he says" fumes? "we have been
breathing in everyone's germs and they
are worried about fumes!!!!"
btw! where the heck is my
antibacterial gel!
New Jersey is a great state, expensive as it is
i would choose to live no where else!
but geez, this state needs to get their
priorities in order! Fined for Fumes?
the things you learn on the road......

ROFLMAO!! I got it and had wrong number posted! I got frickin' FOAD!! IT came up with some whacked out error!
Joey, I love you!!!
Thanks iteach for marching with me!
Now I have to put his boots back for work at 6 am hehe
Joey, you make me smile!!!
love you too iteach!:)
This was fun..I'm cheered up now! Thanks to you and Mary!!:)
I always get sad when I have to hang up the phone with him and it was an hour ago and now I'm not sad anymore! lol
I'm going to take that smile with me to bed, my hubby will wonder what you and I were up too!
Good night everyone!
Well, off to catch up on some online stuff before bed! Thanks again!:)
that's sweet to say!
iteach, I have been too busy to get excited yet. I am afraid I will forget something. I don't want to over pack. For the first 3 days we will be staying in Lyon France at a friend of my nieces parents home. They are both professors and take in foreign students now & then. They live on a vineyard.We will then fly to Rome for 3 days, then to Paris for a week. If I get a chance I will either write a blog on myspace or send Carol an email to forward to the nest, if it's alright with her.
hehe iteach;)
Let's make him wonder;)
Mr. Joey is fast asleep! He was awake 20 hours today and worked..He works out of state!
Mary that sounds like a fabulous trip! WOW! Yeah try to blog and definitely take tons of pics and video!!
Mary, I will get excited for you. It was 20 years ago when I went and the memories seem so long ago.
I didn't realize we were marching lol! Good night Joey
Hey Turtle. I can hear you poppin' in & out! Are you there?
Hey - Iteach, Joey, Mary, and all those in the nest late.
Just got finished watching the Bachelorette.......
I won't give any spoilers - but I have NEVER wished SO badly for a person NOT to get a rose as I did tonight!!!
:-)
I want a new house.
EBJ - I really think you out did yourself on the potato salad!!
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!
Hey Want...
I'm watching "Hoosiers" - I have NEVER seen it -
:-)
Hey Mek,, I watched "The Rookie" the other night, it was great. You'll like Hoosiers.
Want! I want a new kitchen!
Okay Mary, we need to work on this.
Hi MEK!!
Want - yes, the Rookie is good..
Hi Mary..
EBJ and SacBarb - if you watched the Bachelorette tonight - the word GREAT was probably used more than AMAZING.......
okay - back to the movie!!!
Want, I think Mr Mary thinks he "can take it with him" cuz he isn't letting loose on his $$ LOL!
Tell him if he leaves the earth first you're going to spend it all !
Want~LOL! He has heard THAT a few times! I swear he has every penny he has ever earned. Oh well, the house is paid for and I'm not starving. I offered to pay for half of it, but he didn't budge sooo. I said "no kitchen, then I'm off to Europe!! I think he wishes he had let me have the kitchen lol!
Oooooooh, good one mary !
ebj......nice potato salad!
Babs ! clap, clap
I'm off to bed, I have an appt.tomorrow with a miracle worker, my hairdresser LOL!
good night Mary !
Well, I really do NOT like basketball - so I'm sure that is why i had never watched "Hoosiers"
but it was a good little movie..
Good Night all!!!!!!
MEK: I did watch the Bachelorette and I agree with the guys sent home. And now I kinda like the crazy jacket guy (Jesse) but I don't think she will pick him. And yes, 'great' seemed to be the word of the day.
Good night MEK, Mary, Want, Barb/WA, and Joey. I'm off to bed.
Good night, everybody!
Mary: Your trip sounds fabulous! Enjoy!
Sleep: Taking up a collection for you!
Joey: Sorry you're sad!
SacBarb: How did your sorority meeting go?
MEK: Maybe they'll weave a big downtown fire into the plot of the opening episode of GW next year. That way, they could continue to film in the usual locations! LOL!
Go to bed Bear Buddy !
Hello Everyone!!
Sorry I haven't been around for awhile.
I think I'm just in one of those blah, funky period's!
I either don't have too much to say or I think what I might want to say is just too damn boring!!!
Last night I did have to stay off the putor cuz we were having storms here. S'pose to have more today.
I think I'm developing allergies too! Sinus's were bad yesterday, but cleared up a bit after the storm. Ugh!
I did see something in the paper Sunday, that made me think of all of you..even More!!!
*
Here it is.....
In Arvada Co. Two guy's are being looked for, for a robbery!
Say's their mask's showed some Fashion sense, but little
modesty!!!
They were wearing Women's THONG UNDERWEAR!!!! LOL
One was wearing a Green Thong and the other, Blue!
The article say's, Each Thong barely covered their nose's, mouth and chin and left the rest of their face's EXPOSED!!!!!
The article did not say if they did this robbery on a THURSDAY though!!!
Just made me laugh and think of you all!! Anyone missing their Thong's!???? LOL
*
Well, I'll try to get my ass in gear and be around more.
I miss you guy's!
Have a great day!
I'll be watching for the storms!
Love to ALL!!!
