im gonna be in so much pain this weekend. :-( so i was comming home from work this morning @ 1:30 am (stupid 10 hour days tho yay for 3-4 days off every weekend), i work in a factory deep in the wilds of SOIL, when all of a sudden i crest a hill and see a whole herd of deer off to one side. Of course there has to be one slow assed stupid deer that hasppens to be in the other side and decides very quickly that he wants to be with his friends. So he starts across the road at a very accelerated pace and i have to decide what to do quickly. the only thing that keeps going through my mind is a opicture of me crushed to death from the deer comming through my windshield and kicking as it dies. so i decide to cut around it as there is no time to stop or even slow down as it is the top and far side of a very steep hilll, that ive been on every single day that ive worked at my job(3 years now) and never seen any deer there (just my luck huh?). well come to find out the grass thats right off the road is unbeliveably slick (find out later theres a freeze advisory go figure huh?). it sucks me off the road like i was never even on it. also just so happens at that very point in the road there is a y intersection that is meeting, with my road being part of the top, and a nasty culvert right smack dab in the middle. no stopping for me either, remember said freeze advisory? apparently frosted over grass makes for no traction either, so i guess i hit the culvert at about 45-50 mph airbag deploys fine, i was wearing my seatbelt, thank god i always do, so all in all im fine. get out of the car to see how bad it is. the front end is gone. one tire completely destroyed. front end leaking fluids. not sure what so i shut off my lights asap. so ive never been in a wreck like this b4 and dont know wether its ok for me to call 911 or not, dont want to be one of those people who are on the news lately i.e. calling 911 for chicken mc. nuggets, so i call my insurance provider as im sure they're used to this kind of thing. the lady that answers the phone explains that i have to call the police and that its ok to call 911 then she asks if im ok and when i say, very shakily, that i was she starts flippin out and calls 911 for me. she tells them where i am and that ive been drinking and that i keep going in and out of conciousness. well i end up with 3 patrolmen and an ambulance there. who inform me to call 911 first next time as the lady got them all riled up for nothing. so they take my statement check me out in the ambulance take me to the police station (in the back of a squad car, scarry thing i never want to experience again) i call my mom and my gf, after having previously texted her to let her know i was ok but that i had had a wreck. my mom picks me up and gets me some mcdonalds on the way home. all that happened between 1:30 and 3 am and now i have to get up at 9 to deal with everything its 4:30 and i cant sleep. ive already sent my teacher a notice that i wont be at school tomorrow (thats a whole nother story right there) and my back and neck are stiffening. ill prolly take some asprin just in case but i walked away from it so i thank god that im ok. it could have been alot worse. i hope the deer is ok.
