P.U!

Today when I was filling up my tank the pump handle malfunctioned and fell out of the tank, spilling gas all over the truck and the ground!  Of course, I tried to catch it and got gas on my hand. YUCK!

The smell immediately took me back to the 70s, when Poss and I were in a car accident.  When I got a whiff of my gas-o-hand, I immediately --though transiently-- got nauseated from the gasoline aroma.  Floods of memories came back.  Ick!

It's times like these to reflect on what's good in life and how fortunate I have been!

Make the smell go away!
I still flinch and pull to the right (slightly) when I see a white car approaching me too fast from behind.
