Hard Hat & Hiking Boots

The construction crew is digging up my street. The flag waver is a woman who has so much plastic surgery she looks like a blow-up doll in hard hat and hiking boots. She has greased lips and a bleached platinum ponytail and is sporting skin-tight stretch blue-jeans. As I walk my dog past the pink and orange porta-potties a man in a glow vest jumps out, rubbing his calloused hands with sanitizer. The porta-potty guy had arrived in a silver tanker truck to suck out the stalls. The stench immediately permeated the area. I scurry away with my dog as the man with the vacuum hose smiles at the blow-up doll who apparently has no sense of smell.
