Stop! My dog needs to poop!!!

I tried hard to resist blogging about this because its really random. But, here goes...

I was walking to work yesterday when I saw this stylish Italian woman walking her little dog. (Aside: I love dogs...but this one was not exactly likeable. It was one of these really fancy breeds that look more like large rodents than dogs.) Suddenly the dog stops and decides to take a poop right in the middle of the road. The woman makes no effort to pull the dog to the side walk. Instead, she elegantly whips out a gloved wrist to stop this massive trucker that's coming towards her. The beefy driver watches in amazement as the woman waits for the dog to finish and then carefully cleans up the poop with a plastic bag (yes...they can't leave it on the road). The woman looks least hassled by the line up of cars that patiently wait for the trucker who helplessly waits for the woman. By this time I am chuckling at the scene that unfolds. Beefy driver pulls down his cap to cover his face, pretending to be embarrassed. I know he's just playing along since I am so amused. I walk away sighing to myself about hot Italian women, their ugly dogs, beefy truck drivers and cars that don't seem to be in a hurry to get anywhere...just another day in Italy :)
