Everyone Should Blow Bubbles Out Their Car Window!

A little over a week ago, I was sitting in a bad traffic jam, saying to myself, "Oh my GOSH!  This traffic is SO BAD!"  When a driver, waiting in the car in front of me, randomly blew a bunch of soap bubbles out of her car window!  It made me smile and laugh!  It lightened my mood in the heavy traffic.

She later waved-danced her hand out her window.  I noticed she had a really pretty and unique manicure, along with a beaded bracelet.

I felt like, "I want to be more like her!"  Carefree and just have fun, despite the traffic jams and other difficulties that pop up into life.  Of course, blowing soap bubbles out of my route car may not be a very professional choice.

A few minutes later, I saw someone on a unicycle cross the street behind me.  Then, another one, ahead in the distance, on a taller one!

Once I left the traffic jam and finally was near my next location, I had to stop at a traffic light.  Some guy started walking normally across the street, then suddenly broke into a crazy skip type-thing, in what I might guess was to make his girlfriend (or whoever she was) laugh (she was waiting across the street for him).

It is little moments like this that make me love my route.  Seeing people out and about, happy and having fun. The scenery is beautiful too.  Here are some other things I have been enjoying lately:

Current favorites on the radio while driving my route:
"Stay" by Rihanna featuring Mikky Ekko
"I Knew You Were Trouble" by Taylor Swift

Current favorite snack on the warm, sunny days:
Vanilla ice-cream wedged between two Graham Crackers, with coconut and semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Current favorite fast food items (when I need a bite on the road):
Pretzel Bacon Cheeseburger - Wendy's
Regular Roast Beef Sandwich (with ketchup) - Arby's
House-Made Chips - Arby's
Salted Caramel Shake - Arby's

Also, I recently tried "Chunky Monkey" from Ben & Jerry's for the first time!  Banana flavored ice cream, with chocolate chips and walnuts.  Normally, I am not a huge banana fan, but this stuff is good!
