What the hell was that?

It's a given that if you live in California you spend a good amount time driving in your automobile. And the more you drive, the more crap you see. For example, I never thought I'd see one car physically on top of another. But then what do you know?!?! There it is on the 105. A mean accident with a big ass truck crushing a tiny Corolla. Crap like that doesn't surprise me anymore. I wouldn't even think twice if something similar happened.

But every so often I come across weird Twilight Zone instances where I'm driving late at night and am not to sure of what I just drove by and saw. I mean, it is me after all. I never sleep enough. I drink too much. And I know the truth. I'm Asian. That lowers my credibility enough right there. By default I don't belong on the road anyway.

Anyway, so here I am on my regular Sunday night drive back to my place from my parents being like every other commuter. And just as I said, I've seen, ran over, dodged, or hit almost everything. Possums, cats, babies... You name it. It's been under my tires.

Until the 60 to 605 interchange comes up. I'm on the curve driving relatively sane when I quickly have to swerve out of the way because of some object that if my eyes didn't deceive me, looked something like a wheel barrel filled with hay. I thought to myself, "Nah, that couldn't be. You only find that shit on farms." And as I proceed further down the freeway, I see four guys jump out of the back of a beat down pick up truck wearing overalls, looking very well corn fed, start to run back for their missing wheel barrel.

Well what do you know! Now that's just damn weird. For here at least. I guess what I'm trying to say is, you never know what you're going to see when you drive in California. I would have preferred seeing a big busty lady jump out of a Mini Cooper with 12 clowns doing cartwheels. But you know, we don't pick the weird shit that happens to us.
