leftunspoken's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Don't trust what you watch on the big screen, man. In the movies, innocent every-day folks who find themselves in danger suddenly develop stunt-driving skills. Then you have me, who by comparison was completely stymied yesterday by a hubcap. I saw the large truck in front of me on the freeway pull left. (I do pay attention to this sort of thing.) However I thought he was just wandering into the merging lane a little early. And then I see it...big ol' hubcap lying face down, to the right of center of my lane. So what do I do with my quick-thinking, pretty-girl-in-danger, newly acquired stunt-driver skills? I pull my wheel left just enough to run directly over it. My tire seems fine. My pride has a large ding. 8:18 a.m. - December 19, 2003 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
