You Might Have Problems If...
Sep. 1st, 2008 08:42 pmI'm back in Chicago. I usually stay downstate Monday night, but everything was wrapping up and folks were leaving, so I decided to bail as well.
Before I got out of town, I had to gas up my car. After having sweated profusely watching the parade in 90-degree heat, I also had a powerful thirst, so I went inside to pay for the gas and buy a bottle of water. While there, the cashier was talking to one of her friends while dealing with the customers (I was 3rd in line). They had an interesting conversation, which went something like this:
Friend: Yeah, he's drunk and saying he's buying a car.
Cashier: I thought he didn't have a license?
F: He doesn't, which is why I can't figure out why he's going to buy a car. But that's not his only problem.
C: Oh?
F: Yeah. He needs to hurry up his divorce - his girlfriend's pregnant.
Like I said, you might have problems if... ;-)
