I almost bought the farm yesterday, and it was very cheap. I was walking back from the Dollar General with paper products, three protein drinks and a lighter, when I almost got creamed.
It was windy and I had my head down, my hat had already blown off once, when I wandered across the Davis highway, the busiest one way street around here. I had code on my mind, been wallowing in it all day, and forgot to look. Fortunately, the car that slammed on it's brakes to avoid giving me flying lessons, had probably seen me coming a ways off, and all I got was a loud honk.
I went back to the DG this morning for dog treats, because the girls are arriving at 1030 for some quality time with me. I told the hot black chick behind the counter that the two bags of treats were my breakfast. She deals with me all the time but gave me a look that wondered if I was serious.
Anyway, I'm grateful to still be walking, cause one of these days, that's going to stop. I don't drive anymore, so I wonder what's next.
