*twitch*

i have this tendency to look at the people in the cars around me, even in my rear view mirror, which made for an interesting drive this morning.

the major road i drive down is three lanes.  i was in the far left lane stopped at a traffic light.  (no this is not a story about getting rear-ended again..)  in the far right lane, a guy pulls up, looks over at me and winks.  i thought this was a little odd.. thinking maybe i was just in the line of sight of an on-the-road flirt-fest i looked to my left - a really old man concentrating very heavily on the car ahead of him.  maybe the winker's an anna nicole smith of the gay community..?  perhaps.

light turns green, i drive away.  another red light comes up, stopped again.  i can see in my rear-view mirror that winker is coming.  again pulls up within view of me, looks at me, and winks AGAIN!  what the.. i mean seriously?  really?  i wish i were making this up.

light turns green, i drive away.  at this point the guy ends up behind a stopped bus, so i didn't end up seeing him for the rest of my drive to work.  right now i'm rationalizing that the guy had a twitch (like howie from the backstreet boys) because those winks certainly couldn't have been directed towards me since i looked like a total hobo this morning (so freakin' tired).  that or maybe he just really liked my disco balls.
