So, I'm driving down a busy street, in the right lane, and I see a large Grizzly Adams looking walking against traffic in my lane. He's a little far from the curb, so I had only two options: Hit him with my mirror, or put it to the floor and change lanes.
I put it to the floor and changed lanes. I had the feeling stopping would lead to a severe stare down, or an encounter with a demented Grizzly Adams.
Travelling home from work leads to some interesting things. Considering I had to dodge a kid on a bicycle, and a Dodge pickup truck at a stop light, I had this strong feeling I needed to get home and lock the doors....so, I did.
The full moon is still 4 days away. I checked. It has been that kind of day all week here, but on steroids.
ReplyDeleteTo add to the madness, we had a wreck on the project yesterday, and an older gentleman, that shouldn't be driving, found a way around the barrels. He drove into the fresh concrete, which required a backhoe to remove.
DeleteI asked if he knew where he could wash his car. He responded he did, and drove off slinging wet concrete from under his SUV.
Are new side mirror replacements really that expensive?
ReplyDeleteIf it didn't incapacitate him, he'd have torn the door off to get to me. He was a huge, angry looking, bearded man.
DeleteOne day as I traveled round town, everyone honked at me. it was very disconcerting! I could not wait to get home where the crazies could not honk at me.
ReplyDeleteI won't ask about what might have been hung under your car.
