2 things that struck me, today

Struck me meaning 'made me think' not belted me across the chops.

1) I saw an older model mini-van, today, with very shiny chrome, spinning hubs inside the worn tires. Is it just me or is that particularly amusing?

2) I like parts of people. Sometimes I'm struck by the graceful slope of a woman's shoulders or the curve of a child's cheek. Sometimes it's the riot of corkscrew curls or the flash of someone's grin. Today, a man was walking alongside the road in shorts with white socks and black engineer boots. He had lovely calves. I found myself glancing in the rearview to get another look as I passed.

Although I've been told I have a hard head,

I believe you're right. Being struck by a mini-van is low on my list of "things to do today".
