"Just let me know."

[music] Bob Dylan - A Hard Rain's A-Gonna FallUsually I don't notice things. I mean all the time. My roommate Sharon talk about the kind of impression certain people make on her, like first impressions, that I for the most part didn't even notice. I don't know...I can't think of an example. I think I'm just too naive to notice lots of things (naivity is a common and overly used word used when describing myself). Well, today I noticed something.
I don't know...maybe that paragraph had nothign to do with what I saw, but I'd like to write about it anyway.
I was walking about to cross a street, and a car stopped and waved for me to pass. Common practice. Well, as I'm about halfway across the street, and a car on the street on which I am parallel runs straight through the stop sign. No one was in the street, no one hit or anything, but I was just thinking that if I hadn't crossed the street, that car probably would have pulled out and been hit by the stop sign-running car.
I just thought it was interesting. I can't help but think of it spiritually, that something made me cross the street at the perfect time to prevent and accident. Maybe it was just a coincidence, but maybe not. In a way, it was kind of uplifting, and I could tell my test-induced-quasi-depression was slightly uplifted, which is good.
I should be studying.
So long!
