Aussies in Memphis

I enjoyed an hour ride recently with four women from Australia. I was happy that one of the 800 people who accepted my business card last weekend and swore to call for a ride actually did! This ride was one of the more fashionable I've had as all four women, two mothers and two daughters, were dressed in what I would call Artist Wear- the type of stuff I see artists wear when they are dressing up, long flowy skirts, bright colors, cool hats. One of the Aussies and I chatted about astrology (my husband is a Leo with a moon in Scorpio, I am a Scorpio with a moon in Leo), about mothers and about my boss. I told her how I consider my boss to be the best boss I've ever had, but I've never told her that. My ride told me that life is too short to not tell people positive things that you feel about them and they are right. I will let my boss know how I feel; I have been inspired! We all talked about accents and how the average Aussie does not appreciate having their accent mistaken for a Brit as,"We hate the Monarchy!" The ride ended before I could dig deeper  but this ride made laboring on Labor Day more fun than work!
