So on Valentine's Day Brendan and I had gone to Chik-Fil-A to get some lunch and had decided that we would go drive-thru and then just park and sit in my car to eat. We parked facing the road and there was a bus stop right in front of us. Eventually a bus pulls up and a woman with an infant gets out. She unfolds her stroller, puts the baby in, and then proceeds to cross the street. Now, why is this wrong you may ask? This was terrible because she crossed in the MIDDLE of University Blvd. Now, I know none of you are from Orlando, but if you were you would know that University, especially down on the UCF end, is an INCREDIBLY busy road where people drive WAY too fast and don't pay NEARLY enough attention. My university (UCF) is right at the end of this road, and Full Sail (a vocational school) is a few miles down on the other end. So, if we combine the totals from both schools that means that's there probably about 45-50000 18-25 year olds cruising this stretch of road. This woman takes her baby and just starts CROSSING. I about had a heart attack. What is WORSE is that there were CARS COMING. She actually just waved to these people and then started crossing, trusting that they would stop. AND, on top of THAT, when she got to the other side she started walking up the sidewalk and walked past the crosswalk...where she could have crossed from the other side if she had just walked up the street a bit. I could not believe my eyes!!!!!! This woman is so lucky I wasn't waiting for her on the other side of the street because she would have gotten the wrong side of me.
That's fine if an adult woman feels the need to endanger herself by crossing a very dangerous SIX LANE ROAD, but how could you endanger your infant like that?! Oh my gosh I was FUMING. She is soooo lucky I wasn't outside to give her a piece of my mind.
Do some people really just think they're invincible??
(Hope this didn't put a damper on anyone's moods - just thought I'd share - hope everyone's having a nice week!
