The Case of the White Mini-Van

When: Christmas Eve afternoon

Where: Lee's Grocery Store

Who: Kent and I

What: Kent and I were in the check out line almost ready to pay, when I remembered some needed items. I asked him to pay and then take the groceries to the van and I would just get back in line because the store was packed. It didn't take me too long and soon I was going out the front doors of the store. Right in front of me was a white mini-van. I assumed it was Kent. I opened the passenger door and tried to climb in but the van kept moving! I thought, "How rude! What is he doing?" I looked up to see a strange man in the driver's seat. He said, "Wrong van!" I mumbled, "Sorry, ours is white too," as I backed away and he inched forward in the line that was in front of the store! Then I realized that I had no idea where Kent was parked because he had dropped me off because there was no where to park. I walked around the parking lot with a red face and a stupid smirk on my face until I finally found Kent and could tell him what happened. I'm sure the guy in the van was laughing his head off or writing to his friends on Facebook about the crazy lady at Lee's! Have you ever noticed how many white mini-vans there are?

Our van is white too; but we haven't washed it in a long while so right now I just have to look for the dirtiest van around! Funny story, it made me smile today.
