You know there are only a handful of events in your life that make you take a step back and go “Did that really #$*(ing happen??” Yeah I had an event like that 5 minutes ago. It was such an odd series of events that I think in my half-frenzied state of knowing I was going to be late to work or the fact I just woke up that lead me to believe that the event was mostly in my head rather than physically happened, but regardless I’m still rather rattled about it all. Let me explain what just happened.

So naturally, I rolled out of bed about 10 minutes before I had to be AT work, but that’s okay I live like 2 minutes away. This is usually a morning ritual as I’m dashing about my apartment at breakneck speed (well not so fast these days as my ankle is still a bit sore)… I manage to cram myself into clean clothes and brush my teeth and hair. Still not sure if I got all the tangles out there, but oh well. I push my shoes on my feet, barely remember to grab my purse and keys and run to my car (after locking the door naturally).

I quite literally live like 3 blocks away from work so I wasn’t too extremely worried about being too late. I turn off the little side street I take and then turn onto one of Waco’s bigger roads. I don’t get more than 10 feet on Lakeshore when I notice there’s this rather good looking guy walking down the street. I’m fairly sure that’s the reason I noticed him. He was walking with something large, but I couldn’t tell what it was, but that wasn’t the point.

He had longer hair for a guy, not quite to his shoulders. It was straight in the front but had a bit of a layer and wave to the back. His skin wasn’t particularly tanned but he wasn’t pale either. The man was wearing a pair of sunglasses, and I couldn’t blame him since he was facing the sun as he was walking. He had on a plain white t-shirt, you know like the kind you can get at Wal-mart for like 5 dollars and a pair of black jeans. Not like faded grey jeans, black. I didn’t get to notice his shoes, because it dawned on me what he was caring down Lakeshore Drive. Over his shoulder with one arm slung over it the man was caring a cross. Not like a little one I mean like the kind major churches put out in front of their buildings. A life-sized cross.

About this moment it’s been about a minute from the moment I first started glancing at him, and as I slow down to make sure that I’m NOT hallucinating, and the guy looked straight AT ME and smiled and waved. He then continues down the street like nothing had happened. At this moment, I’m starting to freak a bit because that’s just wayyyyyy too weird—wait wait, never mind this is Waco—so I turn to go stare back in front of me so I don’t crash into the person in front of me. Cause that’s all I needed this morning.

I turn to look at the intersection between the road I’m on and the road I need to be on, which is good because traffic was backed up and I almost had a fender-bender due to Jesusman. It was only then did I notice there are flashing lights.

Less than a block away from the guy with the cross, there was a HUGE 3 car accident. There was two ambulances, a regular one and one of those EMS ones, a fire truck, and the entire Waco PD it seemed. One of the cars were totaled and upon closer inspection (about 10 minutes later because everything had nearly ground to a halt as far as cars moving) did I see all the blood. Now I’m not the brightest crayon in the box, and I’m definitely not one to see Jesus’ face in cheetos or in the spots on my desk or something, but that’s just too weird right??

I mean Jesusman + Accident = Not coincidence

Well maybe it’s a coincidence if the people driving down the road were too busy looking at him and that was the reason for the crash, but still WAY too freaky of a coincidence for me, thank you very much. Maybe I am just as crazy as I tell the ladies at work I am, maybe I dreamed it, but regardless I did without a doubt scream “Did that really #$*(ing happen??” to my steering wheel.

In other news. Yesterday was my birthday. Congradulations to ~balletvamp because she was the only person who remembered without having to be reminded.

~Yamaki and *backshadow did remember but I retold them which totally ruined my birthday remembering game. But props to them anyway.

No I don't want anything... >_> *doesn't particularly like birthdays* But if you're just going to die if you don't do something, then sure send me a note with happy birthday. Just don't cause yourself too much trouble over it.
