Bluelight Serenade
"Do you know how close you came to hitting me on the side of the road back there?" Close enough for a ham sandwich, I didn't say. What I did say was I'm sorry and I sure as hell didn't realize I was that close to you...

...I had an early appointment this morning and I had the car on cruise control at 55, per usual. I always go the speed limit. Ahead I saw a police car had someone pulled over in the emergency lane and was still flashing his lights. The cop was standing beside the car, doing his usual thing. I cruised on by him at 55 in my right hand lane. No problem, I thought. Evidently I was driving too far over in the right lane because he pulled outfollowing me, lights still flashing. I got off with his evil eye, a scolding and one huge rush for breakfast.
Edited to add: (5/30-9:07am) The thought that I may have come close to him haunted me all day long. I'll defininely swerve far away from anyone pulled over like that the next time.

Tish got a wild hair (said with fondness and much love) and decided to post 150 posts in one day last week. She's a better woman than I. Gutsy and always facing challenges square-the-fuck on. I like that.

Kevin Sites, CNN correspondent, scud stud contender, and one-time blogger from Iraq, was seen reporting for CNN last night from Bakersfield, CA, on the mystery boy story. I think it'd be great for CNN to have him as their blogger like MSNBC has their bloggers; as do many major newpapers.

It wasn't long after 9/11, September 11, 2001, that I began this website. I felt compelled to connect with other people around the globe. I had recently heard about "weblogs" or "blogs" and I dove right into Blogger.com. I searched for others to connect with online and I found Ageless. It led to meeting many great friends to discuss events of the day. From then on it snowballed. Most importantly we offered one another support and friendship across the globe; finding that we were just a few keystrokes away.
