Stuck in Traffic Forever

I went to town today

(if you grew up in Buckeye,

that's what you call going into the big city)

to pick up my son's birthday present

he has wanted an old ice chest forever

a really old one

but all the one's I have seen on the internet

are way out of my price range

but yesterday,

as I was looking on instagram,

one of the junk in the trunk girls was having a sale on instagram

and had posted a pic of a coleman ice chest

it was old, but not that old

I thought it would be perfect for his birthday,

and it would save me from running around in this heat

looking for one and it was priced right

I also scored some great furniture from the Salvation Army

for the next vintage sale while I was killing time

waiting to pick up the ice chest

on my way home I got stuck in traffic

if there's anything I loathe,

it's traffic that is not moving on a freeway

a big truck hauling watermelons overturned in the tunnel

and so all traffic was detoured OFF OF THE FREEWAY

yes, all 10,000 cars that were on the freeway and not moving

were detoured to a two lane road

it's a good thing I had my I phone to distract me
