So apparently, there is a study that says if you say more than 17 words to a toll booth collector it changes their entire outlook on a day. When I heard that I started chatting up every toll booth I drove through if they liked it or not. Out of 7 toll booths 6 collectors smiled and wanted to talk longer.
If you come in contact with a toll booth collector or anyone else that is in need of a smile-give it to them. Who knows it could even save their life.
p.s. My mom just hit me in the head with a door. She claims it was an accident.

Oh, Bridget! Ever thought of creating a bubble-wrap body condom for yourself?!? Sounds like you need it!!! You should at least wear a helmet wherever you go!
I always try to treat people like toll booth operators kindly...I'm sure their job must suck, they get paid crap, & I can sympathize with how they must feel.
I don't know if this is true but it sounds like it could be.
I don't ever go through those things but next time I do I will remember what you just said.
