"too hard on the brakes again..."

dear livejournal,

on the way home from seeing the hold steady's second show EVER at the talking head in baltimore [which was incredible and i will gush more about later], we had an accident. there was LIGHT snow in baltimore, but then POOF - when we got on 95 it was EVERYWHERE. in short, my car spun out of control since the roads were NOT PLOWED AT ALL and a car hit my rear end and then another car behind that one ran off into the ditch. amazingly, everyone was alright, tho you wouldn't know it by the looks of the cars. my bumper is cracked and my trunk hood pokes up just a little. the metal of the hood of the car behind me was scrunched up. they had just left on a 7 day road trip earlier that day from [i believe] saratoga, ny. it could have been worse. it could have been worse. i keep telling myself that.

who wants to give me a neckrub? seriously.

Aww, girlfriend, I am glad you and the other people involved are okay. Snow is crazy, seriously. Stay inside until it goes away. Drink cocoa and make prank phone calls, that will surely lift your spirits! xoxo

whoa! glad to hear that you're ok!
you should go to an aveda store (not salon) and ask them for a complimentary stress relieving massage.

i know all about car accidents. i've been in some really bad ones where the cars were totaled even. one time i was in one on 95...shannon in her car in the lane next to us. i can't believe people didn't die that night- you should ask her about it sometime, but miraculously, everyone was fine.

i'm glad you are okay. xoxo

leigh-

i feel your pain. i was heading home from NY and hit baltimore around 3:15 AM-i took me 2 hours to make it to reston, and that included some asshole actually CUTTING ME OFF, me slamming on my breaks, and taking a 540-degree turn in the middle of the fucking interstate.

the fact that neither MD nor VA had done anything to clear the roads was fucking bullshit. and you know what, north of baltimore, where it was not snowing, i saw tons of salt/sand trucks and plows out.

i call bullshit.

Yeah I was in Baltimore coming home at like 6 AM with 6 people in the car and our driver was having a hard time controlling the car. I feared for my life many times. It was 6 and not even the highways had been plowed. Ridiculous

Leigh,

Glad to hear all is okay, except for maybe the cars.

Scarier than spinning out: Flipping your car on Christmas morning with your parents in the car ahead and your sister in the passenger seat in your car (Result of that accident: one cut middle finger, stitches).

sometimes it seems like everyone i know is having accidents all of a sudden. it makes me wonder if my turn might be coming up.

glad you're okay, and with snowy roads it coulda been a lot worse, yes.

car accidents are awful and i'm sorry you had to get into one, especially on 95 and in the snow. and, you should go to the hospital and your insurance will pay for it all. rest.
