Bumper stickers and license plates

Today I was behind a truck with a few bumper stickers that caught my eye: one is an old fave, "Not All Who Wander Are Lost." Next to it was "Don't Act Stupid- We Have World Leaders For That."

*sigh*

Interestingly, there was a car next to me at a light with a Rhode Island license plate. It was a personalized plate that said "OREGON." Interesting! So perhaps the person had been an Oregonian who'd moved to RI and come back, or lived in RI and had a fascination with Oregon and then moved. It captured my imagination, anyway.

Happy Friday. Feeing rather pensive and sulky about many things I don't wish to elaborate on, but I hope you all have a good weekend. While I'm in a funk on the interior, I'm wearing my cowboy boots and a fun red shirt with a bright blue funky cat so I at least look like a rock star, even if I just want to go off into the woods for a couple of days and be a hermit. Thanks, Callum, for the brief IM this morning, and to [livejournal.com profile] snottygrrl for the card which I received today. I'd written you a short letter as well, so the letters must have crossed!

Around here I (all too often) see those "In Case of RAPTURE, This Vehicle Will Become Driverless" bumper stickers.

Yes, the bumper stickers certainly changed once I was out of Nashville and Virginia. Portland is much more liberal than most places in the south!!
