But then we drove two hours through traffic to miss the first fifteen minutes of a play that neither my mom nor myself wanted to watch and I don't think Granma did either. Not that "Mama Mia" was bad, you understand, it had nice dancing and pretty costumes, but it wasn't worth the money plus effort. But Granma seemed to think I wanted theater tickets and while it's the thought that counts, a Hannukah present like that doesn't put toys on my shelf.
But there was a rather amusing exchange as we slowly crawled home through traffic.
Guy in front of us, to a large group of people standing on the sidewalk: "Hey, are you demonstrating?"
Chorus from the crowd: "No, we're waiting on a bus!"
It was funny at the time, anyway.
