I was on my way to see my girl, for reference.
I pull out of my neighborhood and there's a blue Legacy pulling into the neighborhood across from mine. I'm watching traffic and stuff... anyway, the Legacy turns across the other lane (left).. and I thought it was already into the 'hood when suddenly I hear this loud CRUNCH and the sound of a tire skipping a little as a mid-90's green... C class, I think... Mercedes of some sort... goes by. The passenger headlight of the Merc. got owned, as was the corner of the bumper of the Legacy. I coulda sworn the Subaru was out of the way... guess not. It was really random...
Anyway, so I get going down the road, and a while later I'm passing through Brooks, a sorta country town nearby along the way. Just out of Brooks I get behind a tractor... JEBUS that thing was slow... finally I got a passing zone but wow that took forever... I'm such a city kid...
Finally, I get on the road that passes by my girl's street and suddenly I see this puppy out of nowhere and nearly hit the little guy cause he came out in the street a little bit... suddenly my fatherly instinct or something kicked in (maybe I just wanted nice guy points, I dunno) and I hit the brakes, then coaxed the mutt over, put him in my lap for the short drive to her house. He was scared! It was so cute (God, I feel like a chick!)... he walked toward me a little, then turned around, then walked toward me again, then stopped a little short and kinda flopped on the ground. Finally he walked up to me and I picked him up... poor guy, probably hadn't eaten in a couple days!
Anyway, I get to her house and they fed him a bit (they have two dogs already). Their neighbors love dogs, so he'll stay there, but will sorta be their dog... not exactly sure how it works. They named him Winston after me
Little black mutt with brown paws and a brown patch or two... quiet as anything and LOVES to be held... grrr... I'm too nice! Oh well...
Anyways, that's my random story of the day.
