in the 4 1/2 block trip to work yesterday, i almost got into a car accident. (yes, i know, i should walk it. but it's 5:30 in the morning and i'm a girl and there are scary men out there.)
between the dark, the rain, the fact that i wasn't awake yet, and perhaps the fact that i was speeding, i somehow misjudged how far away a car was and tried to squeeze between 2 parked cars before he got there. apparently he was thinking the same thing, cuz he came flying toward me. i swerved, trying not to hit one of the parked cars, unable to stop because the leaves were all slippery, and almost died. thankfully nothing happened, other than a serious squealing of tires. and me waking up, which was an odd feeling, considering i'm used to sleep-walking through my first 2 hours at work.

I'm so glad you're ok! And wasn't it nice to be awake in the morning at work for once? I find that when I actually get sleep (rarely;) & get to work kind of early, I feel much better about my day! (well, until something goes wrong, that is;)
crazy, isn't it?
You really should try to not almost die
that's a little ambiguous, celeste!
i'm gonna say you mean that nicely
