Attack of the Q-tips!

Happy Wednesday everyone!
First, I plan to try and blog from the Palm Springs "J" convention next weekend (June 25-27) and I promise to try and get pics of Judi, Shanna and the gang. I will miss you all but know you will be in good hands with Jill and Kristen!
Second, RHONJ. If you do not know this acronym please comment and I will fill you in. Needless to say the finale of this show was crazy and I cannot wait for the reunion show tomorrow night!
What does "Attack of the Q-tips" mean?
I'm sure we've all heard in the news that elderly drivers (some call them Q-tips since you can only see the white tuft of hair above the steering wheel) have been wrecking havoc on the roads lately. Sadly, a little girl was killed earlier this week and countless businesses and people have been damaged and injured by these drivers.
Let me first say that I do understand these folks want their independence. Let me also say that my MIL has been in NO SHAPE to drive for years and we just got her to stop driving (and took the car) this year. For the last year she has barely driven, but that makes no difference. She should NOT have been on the road. I know it's tough for families to handle this but you just have to DO IT to save your family member and others.
And, let me say that if you pass a driving test, you are entitled to drive...at any age. (Well, at least starting at the age when you are able to start driving...)
Today I saw/drove near/behind 4 Q-tips that should clearly not have been driving. How do I know?
1. Q-tip pulled out of the doctor offices near St. Mary's (I had to SLAM on my brakes) and then literally proceeded to CREEP down the street, so slowly I had to honk as the cars behind ME were honking! Q-tip paid no mind and turned LEFT onto Chelmsford St....continuing to CREEP while futzing around with his GPS. He literally almost hit a car IN the parking lot of the hair salon and I, thankfully, turned into the PO so I didn't have to continue to follow him. However, when I pulled out of the PO and back onto Chelmsford St. the same Q-tip was coming TOWARDS me, having turned around in DD and was still futzing with the GPS. GAH.
2. Next Q-tip pulled out of the business parking lot I was in and ran over the entire curb. He could barely see over the steering wheel.
3. Sitting at my desk at the Center when Q-tip (last night) banged a U-turn and almost hit the white Lexus parked at the fence.
4. Today? Q-tip and wife pulling up at about 40 mph to park in the handicapped spot (which really is NO LONGER the handicapped spot) in front of the Travel Agency. I thought, "This is it...they're going to hit the building." Thankfully, they stopped, building intact and went to have their Chinese food. Sidebar-Q-tip can barely walk TO the restaurant but I'm sure he's fine driving...SIGH.
And you just thought a Q-tip would just hurt your eardrum if you stick it IN your ear! No, in fact, a Q-tip can KILL you if they shouldn't be behind the wheel!
