today I'm making a HUGE presentation to an internal stanford client.

power suit & tie - check
Got confidence like Maria in the Sound of Music - check
crisp, cool fall day to walk to work with - check
powerpoint created, tested and destined for full awesomeness - check

best part - I kissed David goodbye this morning (as he's still in bed when I leave) and he said softly, "Go Get'em Tiger!" (melt)

I just got home after witnessing a very intense vehicle/bicycle accident on his way home. The intersection of El Camino and Galvez is very busy - and you can't afford not to look or read all the signs. A guy turned right at probably 25-30MPH acceleration right into a bicyclist. RIGHT in front of me. The bicyclist went away on a backboard in an ambulance. The driver was white as a sheet and hyperventilating from the shock of hitting someone. I gave my statement and biked home VERY carefully.

It is a giant four way intersection with six lanes on El Camino and the right turn has to yield to the cross walk - instead of having a separate WALK light and THEN the left turn. From now on - I'll be going home exclusively another route that is not so busy and does not actually 'cross' El Camino - up at University Ave - El Camino goes underneath - relieving a lot of safety worries.

it's an extra half mile home that today proves is ABSOLUTELY worth it.

how scary!
