How Was Your Commute Today?

[Catrin]

I'm going back to my old game of thinking that the things yelled out of windows (which can't be understood) are words of encouragement. Sometimes, it's true. Why not just assume the people are good?

This is my approach - it is better for my blood pressure and nerves if I assume that shouted comments that I can't understand are good rather than bad

When you're commuting to work at 6 a.m. and you almost yell, "On your left!" to a raccoon (because you thought it was a runner), you need more coffee before you get on the bike.

That would be a BIG raccoon!!

I thought it was wearing reflective gear. Thus the reason why I thought it was a runner. But one of my nature-loving friends explained to me that "it must have been the tapetum lucidum, the reflective layer of tissue in the racoon's eyes that helps him or her see in the dark." Yes, that explains it. I still think I need more coffee before I get on the bike that early.
