It’s Gotta Go Wednesday
As I mentioned previously, we didn’t have our kids Christmas Eve. So Greg and I took advantage of the alone time and went to dinner and a movie. Between the two, we hit Wal-Mart to get a few things. When we were driving through the parking lot looking for a spot to park, we got stuck behind an “interesting” couple carrying a large bag of dog food. No biggie, except that they found in necessary to walk in the very middle of the road, so that we couldn’t pass them.
We drove about 1 mph until we could find an available space. Instead of it just taking a few seconds, it took what felt like 43 hours (it was probably 30 seconds). Yes, we survived this difficult and traumatic experience. But it was really annoying.
People, try to have some level of awareness of your surrounding environment. I don’t expect special concessions or treatment, and I don’t really give it, but have the common courtesy to not completely block the paths of others, and in this case, to simply move to the side. Because blockin’ my way has gotta go.
