Linda661 Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Oh Ann, your Seattle info. is outdated. We're now hands off on the cell-phone thingy -- we have headsets now so we can look like we are talking to thin air. But, that extra hand comes in useful for our laptop that's plugged in to our car cig. lighter so we can work from the front passenger seat or play computer games. We also have the mirror on the sun visor down so we can finish getting dressed and putting on our face during the commute. Some of us are really crafty and forego the laptop for a curling iron to get a headstart on our dressing needs or a hot plate so we can fix breakfast or dinner for ourselves.

cindi o'h Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 These are so funny and so true! When I was a working gal, I was a cross between Linda's Seattle and Ann's Seattle. No kidding. AND!! I was good!!! Mascara, nail polish all going on around the cup of Joe, the radio, the rear view mirror. I DO not believe in reading and driving... therefore, I would get really mad at the car next to me with the novel on the steering wheel..!!!HONK HONK whatayou nutz??? You trying to kill someone???
