An eventful non-eventful trip to the grocery store

Possible reasons why I almost got into 3 or 4 car accidents on the way to and from the grocery store just now:

1. Learning new keyboard habits for Mac OS X is so mentally taxing that I forgot how to drive a car.

2. Everyone was hiding in my blind spot. A car and a pedestrian jumped right out of there, looking to kill.

3. When the car radio is turned way up, the music drowns out your voice and you can fool yourself into thinking that you actually sound like Thom Yorke.

4. Chicken apple sausage contains apples? I always thought that was a just a cute name...or a misnomer, like Pennsylvania Dutch. This line of thinking may have caused my mind to wander slightly.
