So, just in case anybody was unclear on this point, everything I said a couple of weeks ago about children and pets in hot cars? Also applies to 97-year-old women.* Although I think my basic Rule for Living ("Don't be a fucking asshole") also applies here.

I mean, really, people. If everyone just listened to me the world would be a much better place!

In related news, it is hot, and I am sleep-deprived and cranky and looking forward to a delightful day of smog.

*ETA: with the possible exception of the bit about the trunk

The DBAFA rule should be pretty much universal, and enforced by punishments ranging from public shamings to death. Really, life would be so much better...

Wow. I'm really glad she survived.

"She'll die if we can't bring her home," - says the woman who left her locked in the car. Bzuh?

I just don't understand how people can do that.

Word. People are unbelievable assholes. Who'd leave their nan alone in the car? *is very very angry*

How long til you're Queen of the World, and this stops? How LONG???

It is a useful rule, applicable to everything from failing to use turn signals all the way up to genocide.

I like it, and I'd vote for you to be a good leader, in a despotic kind of way.

you'll be happy to know that Zoey spent the entire weekend at home. At home, pissed off at me, but I really have no guilt over that. ;)

People just don't think, and then they get defensive when something goes wrong. Grrrr. I'm just glad it was no worse in this case...
