most fucked up thing in my life happened to me the other morning actually. i was walking from where i have to park my car for work (free lot) up to where i work in the main street area. I have to cross a few very busy streets to get there, and i always have my headphones blaring as i walk.
So, i get to the busiest street i have to cross (only 4 lanes, but morning traffic) and i'm scoping the other side where i'm headed and see a guy in one of those mini street sweeper vehicles, really small, mainly used for plowing sidewalks in the winter kinda thing. anyways, they're very small and slow and the road is straight for blocks, and i'm planning my cross of the street keeping this vehicle in mind so i don't get in his way when i cross.
I make my move, a few cars slow down, blah blah, etc.. get to the other side and the vehicle is gone. nowhere to be seen, nowhere it could have really gone in the 5-7 seconds i wasn't looking at it, it's just fucking GONE. i stood there stupified for a minute looking around for it.. i can't explain it, and i actually didn't even tell anyone about it cuz it sounds stupid like i hallucinated a street sweeper... but i swear i saw the fucking thing. i was kinda uneasy most of that day thinking about it..
fucking weird.
