Ok. So yesterday afternoon, we went up to Baltimore for Lindsey's friend's birthday party. Many traffic woes getting there, but that isn't important. When we left the party about 4:40 pm, we ran into some nasty traffic on the way home that was literally bumper to bumper...we were all tired and sick of being in traffic until we saw something that I wish I had been able to photograph. We come to a complete stop, and I happen to look in my rear view mirror only to do a double take because apparently Tammy Faye Bakker is alive and well and drives a jeep cherokee. Besides all the caked on makeup, this woman had a white sweat headband around her forehead...kinda quirky but that was nothing...I also notice something white on her shoulder that was moving around...I tried to get a better look by taking off my sunglasses and saw that it was a BIRD!! The woman had a small cracker in her hand, and she was feeding it. Yes, a bird in the car. Thank goodness we were stalled in traffic because I was concentrating more on her than the car in front of me...Ok, so I look in the mirror again and the bird starts flying around the front seat! I am not making this up...then she gets on the cell phone with the bird on her arm...and then I see something else moving in the front seat... a big black DOG!!! yes, he was walking back and forth on her lap to the passenger seat...all this with the bird on her arm. Then, she takes out a map and starts reading it! So now, she has the bird on her arm, the dog is walking around, she is on the cell phone while looking at a map, and we are driving in traffic! I was cracking up the whole time, Lindsey was trying to get a good look from her car seat...(Kyle was snoozing) and I am trying to figure out how I can take a picture of this whole scene because no one would believe it. It made the 10 mile back-up go so much quicker because it just kept getting weirder.....as they say, truth is weirder than fiction....
