I see me sitting behind the wheel looking cool... my lip gloss simmer- ing and my solar hair looking like an unmade bed as I sip my Spartan breakfast of black coffee from a steaming mug. Sometimes, a man three times larger than his sports car with license plates \MACHO I\ pulls next to me and tries to catch my eye, but I stick-shift into low gear and pull off, leaving him in a cloud of exhaust without a'tBTfead of hope. • Oh, I could pull it off. After all, I'm not without credentials. I have Superintendents meet in Florida TAMPA, Fla. - The annual meeting ot the Retired Superintendents and Ad- ministrators of New York State who live in Florida for the winter, was held March 3 at Sweeden House in Tampa. Charence H. Nye of Keene, and Largo, Fla, was chairman of the 81- member gathering. The official greeter was Ted Wenzel of Albany, who has attended each of these meetings since they were started in 1964. The guest speaker was Paul Vogan. president of the New York State Retired Teachers' Associa- tion, who was visiting friends in Brooksville, Fla. transported three dogs to the vet with three children (one with stomach flu and one blowing bub- bles from his own saliva in my ear) arguing over two windows in the back seat when an umbrella opened automatically. It's just that the opportunity didn't present itself until yesterday when I found myself in the early morning traffic going into the city. This was my chance to fulfill my fantasy. I ran a brush through my hair, put on a skirt, topped by a jacket with one of those five-foot scarfs that just hang around the neck. Next came the lip gloss, and finally the mug of steaming hot coffee. When the motor finally turned over, the vibration spilled part of the coffee all over the dashboard where it dripped down on my leg, causing me great pain. I balanced it on the console and reached for it a few times but cars were pasting me on the right and cutting in. One time when I shifted gears, my entire hand went into the cup and sloshed coffee all over the carpet. Once, I nearly had it to my lips when the cars in front of me braked suddenly and I got a lap full. Ahead, I could see a light. If I timed it right, I could put the cup to my lips and look cool. We inched our way forward and finally my mo- ment had come. I brought the cup from my side, threw my hair back with the assuredness of a woman ex- ecutive on the move, and started to sip my coffee, The light changed. The car behind me blew his horn. I jumped a mile. The coffee dribbled down my chin - and onto my jacket. My scarf fell in- to what was left of the cold coffee. The man in the sports car alongside me laughed until I thought he would have a hernia. I drink too much coffee anyway. Tax problems? Let Wards tax consultants - help with your return.
