I thought I would go to Dollar General Saturday morning. It wasn't as if I really needed something I was out of but more about I'll have to go eventually. As I reached the outskirts of town this old fart in his big truck barely slowed for his stop sign making a left turn into my lane. Having ridden motorcycles on the road for years I have developed a keen sense for the idiots around me always watching out for them. I saw it coming and swerved to the right whereupon he finally saw me and he swerved to the left into the oncoming lane. I am positive he messed his pants. I continued on giving him a glare and a shake of the head. He was frantically trying to apologize with hand gestures. Two blocks further I turned left and drove through the frou-frou part of town with some nimrod riding my ass in his Beemer. I wanted to pull over and suggest to him to try harder for I was positive he could get closer. Finally I made it to my turn into the parking lot for multiple stores. I was following another moron in his big-ass truck. He pulled way over to the left seemingly to go up one of the aisles and I continued on straight only to see he was just swinging wide (no signal) to get his big-ass truck into a very small slot in front of a store. God forbid him parking out in the boonies and having to walk a hundred feet to the store. He stopped before taking me out just staring at me out the passenger window in a complete “Where the #$@! did you come from?” look on his face. By the look on his wife’s face in the passenger seat she had just given him a severe outburst for she knew I was there. Oh the wrath of a wife. I safely made it to Dollar General, parked, pulled up my bandanna and walked into the store. I picked up a basket and started my shopping when things really went bad all of a sudden. I discovered I had left my shopping list back in the RV!! Shopping from memory isn't one of my strong points. I did the best I could, paid for my items, loaded up my back pack and made it safely out of town and back home without getting squashed. Back home I checked my list. I did good. I had planned on going to the grocery store the next day, Sunday, but you know how those Sunday drivers are. Instead I stayed home and changed the oil in Gracie.

Shopping on a Saturday
I thought I would go to Dollar General Saturday morning. It wasn't as if I really needed something I was out of but more about I'll have to go eventually.
