today i was driving down central expressway, from mountain view toward santa clara. there are a bunch of overpasses on central expressway in the sunnyvale area because the local streets cross over the expressway, and there were really no cars in front of me. so anyway, as i was approaching one of the overpasses, i noticed a pedestrian standing and leaning over the railing, looking down on central expressway. i was thinking to myself "what in the world is that guy doing?" he was by himself, and seemed to be intensely focused on looking down. different thoughts passed through my head - "this guy isn't going to try to jump or something is he?" so as i approach the overpass, i suddenly see this big white thing flying down. and then i realize... "that guy is NOT hacking a freaking loogey on my CAR!" unfortunately i was going too fast and was too close to brake or slow down, and even though i tried to swerve, there really was nowhere to go and there was no time to make it effective. and then BAM! the stupid HUGE loogey landed on my car. luckily, it landed on my windshield so that i could easily wipe it away, but guys, this thing was HUGE. it was bigger than bird poop, all bubbly, white, and everything. it was SO NASTY. imagine if it landed somewhere other than my windshield! STUPID guy. i can't believe he was so bored as to have to stand on an overpass and try to develop loogey-spitting skills and try to hit cars below. i was so angry, not just for me since i was lucky enough to wipe it away, but for all his other victims. grrrrrrrrrrrrrr. these things always happen to me.

in other news, guess what came in the mail today? just in time for the giants game? that's right, my handicap placard! woohoo!
