Re: Certain festivities in this timeline
Springtime:
Mary neatly tooled her small import, with the rolled down rag top, to a parking space, so enjoying the beginnings of this day.
Morning wasn't too bad, with only one tiny glitch for unaccountable parts, that were enroot in the audit.
The Italian eatery was packed as usual, with many festive colors viewed, as a platen of Springtime full abloom.
People worked their laptops, chatted endlessly and ate salads and pasta, as they always did this time of year.
The clerk at the checkout counter saw Mary and picked up her order from the lower shielf, as Mary now dug through her purse, looking for her wallet.
"That will be forty dollars and twenty cents"., the checkout informed Mary as she briefly looked around while handing the clerk his payment.
As the clerk stared at Mary, with her makeup making her seem like part of the season itself, Mike began to notice a horrid change come over he face, as he processed the bill.
Her sweet pinkish grin, was now transforming into a sneer, then this sneer starting to appear as if it was an insane rage.
Mike noticed that she was looking over his shoulder, into the outdoor eatery section, where her finance was seated.
She looked closer. Tim's hands was laid upon the small hands of another woman.
Mary now had an if to bite sneer on her face, with her eyes now almost crossed, looking very beady.
Mike handed Mary her change from the fifty she gave him.Instead of neatly placing the return change in her wallet, she simply jammed the money back into her purse.
She then grabbed the lasagna from Mike and stomped over to her convertible dropping the takeout orders into her passenger side of her import.
Mary was now returning to the counter where a very large kettle of to-go tomato sauce was simmering.An extra complement takeout sauce, used in the orders.
Mary grabbed this kettle, however realizing that it was too hot to pour on anyone. She now spied Tim's new cobalt blue Lexus Port, parked futher before the eaterie's curb.
The kettle went with Mary. Cord or not, as the counter attendant could do or say nothing to stop Mary's progress.
With one quick toss, the entire contents of the kettle was now on the Lexus.his red mess, obscuring the front windshield.
With the edge of a carboard container, Mary now scribed out the words, (SLUT), on the front windshield.
Mary promptly removed her engagement ring, placeing it down over the antenna, that Tim has specially installed, so that he could catch communications.
Mary now gunned her ownn car's engine, she had made the turn too wide. She drove her wheels over the curb, making a full circle and then circling once again, to get her bearings.
As a cop saw her drive over the curb the second time, the officer put on her lights and pulled the distraught drive over.
The cop was a lady and was on routine patrol, as she happened by chance infront of the eatery.
Mary obliged as her import was now pulled to the curbside, now ready to receive a ticket.
The lady cop walked to Mary's car, with ticket book in hand preparing for the citation, for improper driving.
Mary's face instead of having neatly applied mascara heightening her eyebrows, were now marked in long streaks, looking as if a character in some grade B horror film.
The cop knew she would not need to unholster her pistol from some reason and began to probe as to why Mary had driven over the curb.
The cop slightly stepped forward and began her sentence, "You know mam,...as she said this she looked up, observing the late model Lexus with the word slut scribed on the windshield and continued further,.. You know slut?....blurted out the officer instead of the sentence; Do you know that you drove over the curb?
Mary blurted out, "Yes I know slut, he's with her in the resturant holding her hand, right now"?!
Something very odd began to occur in the cop's mind as an odd sort of grin came over her face.
The state rule book says, that we should be very careful in how we make turn-arounds going through opposite lanes of traffic.
The cop, in a very weird way placed her hips, as if to siddeled on Mary's cars, as her pen began to touch the ticket pad.
She went on, " You know I always look both ways, when I turn into traffic?, she said, so now starting a series of large nondescriptive circles on the Ticket pad.
As the officer drew on, there were now little pictures, flowers, cats, clouds and a cow, all neatly drawn overt the spaces intended for name license and registration.
This lady cop was letting this go, because it was just the thing to do. Because nobody does a nice girl wrong, makes a promise and then gets away, not like was being done to this one,..she had pulled over?
As Mary stared at the steering wheel expecting a one hundred dollar ticket, the lady cop handed over the ticket, with the advice, "Be a little more careful driving, would ya"?
By the time Mary began to notice all the strange drawings on her ticket, the cop had pulled away and was now making a turn at the intersection.
Mary looked at the series of doodles once more and somewhere in her mind she said to herself, "I guess they aren't all bad"
