Thoughts on my drive home last night (in no particular order)
(1) I'm very happy to receive hand-me-down maternity clothes but nearly 100% of my own clothes have the tags cut out of them because they drive me to drink and I don't really want to drink while with child. But, what am I supposed to do with borrowed clothes? Surely it's rude to cut the tags out of other people's clothing.
(2) Why exactly should I let you in now? You saw the upcoming merge just as well as I did.
(3) Writing lists while driving is probably even MORE dangerous than talking on a phone while driving.
(4) Big, juicy raindrops are a lot more enjoyable after a hot day than they were after 10+ days of only rain.
(5) What would possess someone to smoke a joint [Is that still the "in" word for it?] while driving down the road at 4:30 in the afternoon? What type of person does that? [Aside: Yes, I know it was a joint, the sweet-smelling smoke was wafting into my open window from their car.]
(6) While the art of changing clothes while driving still pleases me it is certainly a little trickier with this newly formed belly.
(7) Toto really should be proud of that line [Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti]. It's not every songwriter who could fit the words Kilmanjaro, Olympus and Serengeti into a song let alone in the same line!

Aw shucks, Chip, that's the nicest thing anybody's said to me today. Thanks!
Is this whole city going to pot? (pun intended) Last week, Marcel saw someone smoking a joint at the bus stop in front of the university, and now you see one in a car. I thought that only happened out in the open at Folk Festival!
And, as much as Toto may be able to write a unique lyric, I have trouble believing it - we drove all the way across the Serengetti, and there's no place you can see Kilimanjaro from there.
#3 As long as you're not trying to type them on a laptop! :)
Great list. Do you have a long commute every night? You'll be ready for that maternity leave, won't you?
