It was snowing. I was cold. I should've worn socks probably but didn't have any clean socks left. I was minding my own business strolling to work from the Trax station in Midvale when a car across the road honked at me and stopped. The driver motioned for me to cross. Naive me, though, "Oh it's a nice co-worker stopping to get me out of the blizzard, hooray". I cross and swing around to the passenger side. The door opens and the driver, a man I have never before seen in my life motions for me to get in. I don't recall if he actually said any words. I looked at his face trying to figure out why in the world a complete stranger is offering me a ride. Milliseconds later it registers in my brain, "Nope, definitely don't know this person" so I'm like "Uh, thanks but I'm actually really close..." I shut the door and continue on my way and the car speeds off. Do I look like I was born yesterday?! Ok, so I maybe act like it. But wow, I'm lucky nothing else happened and glad I didn't need to whip out my mace cuz it was a little windy too...
The moral of the story: Don't be a dummy, listen to your mummy! Don't talk to strangers!!!
