Over the Rainbow
Had an interesting experience yesterday. The day in the office was totally crap with slap in the face after slap in the friggen face. After 15 years I am nearly ready to slap the bastards back but that is another story…. Deep breath… and… I am back.
Well, as crap as the day was I walked outside to the car to go home and as I did, I looked up at the sky and what in the world did I see? A bloody rainbow! and suddenly the bad day just washed away….. Well not really, but it was a pretty impressive rainbow, as far as rainbows go.
I noticed that this rainbow seemed to land in the general area I was headed so I thought I would see how close I could get to it, with a pot of gold in mind. As I was driving along looking at this freaking rainbow and I nearly hit a big freaking truck (or BFT to you). The thing that I found most interesting is just before I turned the wheel to avoid this truck I noticed as clear as day that I could see the rainbow between me and the truck, literally meters in front of me.
As I avoided the truck I realised that the pot of gold everyone goes on about isn’t really a pot of gold it is in actual fact a nugget. That nugget sat in my pants until I was able to get home!
Lesson to the uninitiated, don’t watch freaking rainbows when you drive, they are just optical illusions, watch the bloody road.
