Street signs!
Street signs!
Now you may call me weird or even a little beyond obsessed but did anyone every notice the bridge height sign when your driving on the road. You know, when you are gonna go under a bridge you can see how tall it is. Well i have a really bad habit of checking out these signs and comparing them to my pole vault heights. I try to see if i have cleared the height before or if i know any one that can. Most of the time it turns out to be like "O, look 14'2", MARY SAXER can clear that!" Anybody else got some weird habits like that?????

I do the exact same thing when I am driving down the road. My friends always seem to think that I am nutts when I compare myself though! Most of my friends usually say no way you can go that high on that little pole. I will argue with them and later on they will come back at me when we pass under a higher bridge and mock me. That usually sucks, but hey it gives me shomething to work towards so the next time they say it I can be like well actually......
