Amanda Sees the Stragnest Things

I am way too observant for my own good. Must be the ADD/OCD thing. (By the way, my friend Stephanie told me a good one. A bumper sticker that reads something like, "I have CDO (OCD in alphabetical order) the way it should be!")

Anyway, I had a professional day today, which meant getting to school by 8:00 AM, which, translated in "Amanda Hates the Morning Hours" lingo means "Wake up as late as possible and get breakfast to go."

So, I drove by Tim Hortons (I'm a recovering Tim Hortons Addict by the way, I guess I fell off the wagon) to grab some Timbits to take for everyone. I was pulling away from the window and around the building to the exit. This is one of those Tim Hortons that shares a building with a Wendy's. (Is Wedny's plural? Or do we just make it plural like "Krogers," "Meijers" or "Wal-Marts?" Just kiddnig on that last one, but I do know people say it.) As I was pulling around to the Wendy's side of the building, there was a guy standing in the drive through lane power washing the road (this is a guess, I was a little bit distracted trying not to hit him that I didn't get a good look). Luckily, I wasn't heading for the Wendy's drive through, so I wasn't really close to him as I came around the corner. But, right behind me, there was this person who apparantly needed Wendy's badly, and came around the corner really fast. In my rearview mirror, I saw this quick movement. It was the road washer guy jumping out of the way of the oncoming vehicle!

Seriously, why do I notice these things?
