did you REALLY just say that to me?

In case you thought that I was exaggerating in my last post about the comments I get from people~ here's an encounter I had this weekend: I was walking along the sidewalk with my kids. Lydia was in the front pack and the boys in the double stroller. The traffic along the road was backed up and a guy in the car next to me rolled down his window. Man: "What happened? The TV break?" Me: "TV?....no....huh?" (a little confused) Man: "Are they triplets?" Me: "No." (are you kidding?) Man: "You guys need to get a TV. Too much free time." Me: Absolutely Nothing. The implications of his comment hit me, and I was so shocked that I just stared at him. The traffic immediately let up and he sped away, leaving me speechless. About 2 seconds later, I came up with a million things I'd like to say to that man. It's probably better he drove away first.
