Registering at the circus

At the prompting of my husband, I would like to share with you a very strange experience from this afternoon.

We finally travelled the 3 blocks to the rush notary tag place to get our cars registered in PA. We've kind of been putting it off for a little bit. Anyway, we walk into this dinky little office, the size of a small gas station, and go up to the counter. A female walks up (I'd guess she's in her late 20's) with a baby in her arms and asks if she can help us. I tell her that we need to register our cars here. She asks for our information and sits down (still holding the baby). At this point I think she's realizing that she can't input all of our info into the computer with a baby on her lap. So she hands the boy off to her co-worker. As our person is doing her thing, the other lady puts the boy in a walker, hooks a leash to the front of it, and proceeds to move in circles, pulling the baby round and round in a 5 foot circle around her. Poor thing. . .I'm surprised he didn't throw up all over.

So our girl is still working away, very efficiently, I might add, once she ridded herself of the baby. All of a sudden the co-worker steps to the back room. . .then out she comes with two pugs and the baby again. That's right. . .two very cute, very puggy, DOGS! She hooks the leash from the walker to one of the dogs so he can pull him around. I guess she was getting dizzy. So then we sign a couple papers and get on our way. What a strange, strange place.

I would like to leave you with some words of wisdom from the Pennsylvania Driver's Manual that I picked up from this notary tag place:

"NEVER take your anger out on someone else on the road. Sometimes incidents of road rage are caused by simple misunderstandings between drivers. One driver may make a momentary error in judgment that another driver sees as an aggressive act, though none was intended.

NEVER take it personally when someone cuts you off or pulls in front of you. Just let it go.

If something does happen, DO NOT RETALIATE, it is a serious distraction to focus your attention on a 'contest' with another driver. You are less able to respond to traffic signs, signals and the actions of other vehicles or pedestrians, as needed to avoid a crash.

DO NOT TRY TO TEACH ANOTHER DRIVER A LESSON. Do not insist on being right, even if you are right. You could be dead right!"
