3 Weeks & 3 Days or My New Car

I have to tell you, That was a wild ride. A ride that came to a very abrupt halt. First of all, Yes, I am ok. Thanks for asking. A little cut on my chin that's about it. I also have a bruise from my knee crushing into the dash board. The worst of it came from the seat belt and airbag hitting my chest. The car, a small pine tree, and a defenseless telephone pole didn't fare as well.

After "Are you ok?", the next question is "What Happened!? The roads were wet, I hit a slippery spot and lost control of my car. I am usually a very good driver, but I was not able to re-gain control of the car. It was only a matter of time before my Insomnia caught up with me.

Some of you may be wondering about the title of this specific blog. Well its obvious from the picture above that I am going to get a new car. Maybe your wondering if the Three Weeks part has to do with my previous blog, "Three Weeks". Well yes, it kind of does. My accident was on April 7. Three Weeks & Three Days from the date of my accident is May 1. That is the 1 year anniversary of my Dad's death. He died in a single vehicle accident that was very similar to mine.

The reality of everything really hit me. This close to the anniversary of my dad's death and the recent death of Frank really stressed me out. Something strange happened though. I have been able to sleep, which is something I haven't been able to do on a regular basis in years. Babies don't sleep this good!
Good night, I'm off to the Land of Nod.
