Pete's Log: near death experiences and other goings-on

Entry #515, (Life in General)
(posted when I was 22 years old.)

Stupid Indiana drivers. Today I biked home from Rolfs after doing some running and such (the knee's doing better, thanks). Being a reasonable fellow, I try to keep on or to the right of the white line on the side of the road. But on juniper this is tricky, since the pavement ends immediately to the right of the white line. But I was still well enough to the side of the road for cars to easily avoid me. Well, today some bastard in a rusty truck honked at me and immediately proceeded to pass me with less than a foot of clearance. Now normally somebody passing me that close wouldn't bother me too much, but he honked at me. And it's awful difficult to keep going in a straight line when somebody honks at you from a few feet behind you. Especially if they then come within a foot of hitting you. So that sucked. But I lived.

Spent most of today battling gsu.nd.edu. I think I emerged fairly victorious, stuff is looking much better now. Had baked potatoes for dinner. mmmmmm.... goodness. And rumor has it that Sunny's Korean Patio is the best ethnic restaurant in the michiana area. And it's supposed to have decent prices too. So I'll need to check out that scene.

Notre Dame's women's soccer team is now the only undefeaten team among the nation's 274 Division I women's soccer programs. They beat syracuse to improve their record to 15-0. Woohoo!
