mamajoanFreaky Thing #1: Last night as we were leaving daycare I noticed a whole bunch of local news trucks parked in, or trying to get into and out of, the parking lot of the police station. Which by the way is probably about half a mile, or less, from Isaac's daycare. That was odd, so I mentioned it to my mom, adding that they would probably talk about it on the evening news but I would miss it since I get home after 6:30 and am in bed before 11:00. So my mom watched the 11:00 news and emailed me the scoop: it seems that the police station was hit by lightning!! Which must have happened just around the time I was driving past on my way to pick Isaac up! Yow!
All was well though; they brought in a "mobile command unit" and 911 services were not disrupted, says the news report.
Freaky Thing #2: For quite some time now, on the route I drive to get back home from my mom's place, there has been a bicycle attached vertically to a signpost, above the sign, so about 10-12 feet up. And when I say vertically, I mean with the handlebars at the bottom and the wheels above -- i.e., both wheels were fastened somehow to the signpost, one above the other. Bizarre. Every time I drove by, I kept saying to myself, "I have got to remember to bring a camera next time." But today it was gone. :( I'm sad that I didn't get a chance to capture this oddity on film (okay, silicon, it's a digital camera) and also that I will probably never know what the hell that was about.
Freaky Thing #3: Michael Jackson. Okay, that was a gimme, but I thought the post would be better with three freaky things than two. :)
