Thanksgiving

Its interesting that Thanksgiving is next week, because i have especially been feeling very ungrateful for what i have. I realize that i want more time to do things i love, and less time for those things that i dont really like and am not particularly good at. Which is what everybody wants... but it just feels like everyone else succeeds, while i fail. I wish that i were more creative, more stylish, have more money, live in a better place (one that im not embarrassed about when people come over), and i wish i was a better cook. I wish i was more assertive, a better friend, and smarter when it comes to school. I get these feelings every so often and it makes me feel like a... well.... something. I cant say frump because that is not all encompassing, but i dont know what word to use. Im trying harder to not feel so down... So for this next week i will not think about the bad and focus on the good. My life is not as bad as i make it out to be. I hope that Thanksgiving goes well for everyone.

I almost didnt survive Halloween

So, to begin the day I dropped off Lauren at work at 9am. On the way back home I was driving down University Ave. I was driving about 35mph. I was in the right lane and I saw a guy coming out of the glenwood apartments driveway. Knowing I had the right of way I kept going naturally. 10 feet before I passed him, he decided to gun it out of the lot. This gave me no time to get out of the way or stop. So, I slammed on the brakes and swerved to the left. Before I knew it we crashed and the airbags went off. Well it wasn't my fault, so the other guys insurance is paying for it. I am fine, except for a finger that hurts really bad and my neck hurts a little bit. All this happened on the 10 year anniversary of breaking my collar bone on Halloween '99.



Both Airbags went off and the Emergency lights button popped off as well as the GPS screen.
All the tubes and wires were severed and the tire got a flat
A wonderfully shattered windshield
That used to be the front right corner of the car.
It doesn't look good
She died young.
