Bette caught a ride in with me today again and is hoping for a lift home from someone else. Because she's blind, she has few options when commuting from suburb-to-suburb.
I don't mind driving her to work when her regular carpooler is on vacation. Bette gives me a few bucks for gas and more importantly, she lets me set the commuting hours.
And Bette is funny.
Before she gets into my silver Camry, she waits for me to call her name. Once while waiting for a ride, someone pulled up in a grey car. She got into the guy's car and buckled in.
The man asked politely, "Well, hello! Do I know you?"
Since then, Bette waits for confirmation before plunking down.
Bette likes gambling and because of the low lighting at casinos has occasionally sat on someone's lap by mistake.
She says that makes her a lap dancer.
Too bad I have to drive home alone tonight because of a business dinner.

HA!!! Bette made me laugh out loud. She sat in someone else's lap??? HA!!!!!!!!!! I'd love a carpool partner who was funny.
Why does she live in the 'burbs?
Yes, Bette got into the wrong car, apparently more than once. She likes living in the country where she used to have horses.
