The other night Kelsey and I went to the grocery store. In the parking lot there was a car with it’s light still on, but no one in the car.
I know there are some pretty amazing cars around now that have lights that stay on for a minute or something like that after the driver leaves the car. I don’t have one of those cars, and personally it would drive me nuts. First of all, people would always be telling me, “Hey, your lights are still on!” I know they would, because I do it to other people. Second, I don’t see the sense in it. Why?
So we saw this car with it’s lights still on, and I said to Kelsey, “We better tell someone in the store to announce it so that car battery doesn’t run down.”
We went in and proceeded to shop. Completely forgetting to tell anyone about the car. We were only in the store for about ten minutes and then came out to go home. Kelsey said, “Hey, that car is gone. The one with the lights on.”
I was amazed that all of a sudden, it came back to me. “Whoopsie,” I said to Kelsey, “I try so hard to be a helpful person, but being helpful is only helpful if you’re helpful!”
I won’t be surprised if that quote ends up on pinterest. 🙂
