Say What?!?

My step-mother was taking my 4 year old nephew to the San Diego Wild Animal Park last week. His 2 year old sister was going in to have some fillings & caps put in, so this was a special treat to make sure he was nice and distracted from his sisters impending pain.

He was popped into his car seat in the back of the car and is a really delightful child to travel with as he often amuses himself with toys or his own imaginings.

As they were getting off the 78 East and onto the 15 South heading towards the park, there was a car ahead of my step mothers. The poor woman in the car ahead seemed to be having trouble deciding if she wanted to go at the speed limit or several miles below it, and she couldn’t seem to pick which lane she wanted to be in, veering from one to the other, never leaving enough space to safely go around. Well, my step mother was getting more and more frustrated with each passing mile, and finally let out an exasperated “HEY IDIOT! Make up your mind where you want to go!!” at the car ahead.

About 3 seconds later a pitiful voice from the back seat said “Well Grandma, I kinda wanted to go to the wild animal park…”
