have you got the...

today was an annoying day that i am not proud of. on my way to work today i was making the nice ole trek down beltway 8. 104 KRBE my morning addiction chattering on the radio and me trying to find 5 good reasons to turn the car around and call it a day...when all of a sudden traffic comes to a stop. (not the same kind of stop that happened when i wrecked my car last week, but a slow stop.) so i stop. about the time that i come to terms with the fact that traffic is going to make me late to work,AGAIN, i see this billboard. this billboard has words scrolling and i read the words "have----you----got----the---", horns scream and i have to roll on.

all day i was tormented. what the "H" goes at the end of that sentence? i didn't know, but i had to find out. on my way home i was just so eager that 5:00 had finally arrived and the master plan for my trip home was finally setting sail. i exited where i saw the billboard, u-turned and there it was. i sat in the parking lot just staring up at it reading it over and over. "have---you---got----the---have---you---got---the---have---you---got---the---." fifteen minutes later i drove off. my brain just will not let it go. i have to go to bed wondering what is at the end of that stupid sentence.

better luck tomorrow i guess. i am fearful that if-scratch that-when i find out how the sentence ends i will be left disappointed...finding that my imagination is way more entertaining than the sign. sigh.
