Can it just be .. bad luck?

Ok .. the weekend started off good .. had fun with friends and all that good stuff. I got my new neons in the mail on friday so i decided to put them on on saturday morning. So here comes saturday and im about to put my neons on and my neighbor comes along saying her car wasnt starting and she doesnt know why. So I was like your battery is dead. Shes like so how do i fix that. So i tell her to bring her other car around and i pop her hood and i jump start her car. Shes all happy. Well theres my good deed of the month. Ok so all saturday my neighbor keeps buggin me tellin me not to look for parkin when i could park in her driveway but i didnt wanna because I hate parkin somewhere to move it sometime later when her husband comes along to park in it. So then comes saturday night and i parked in front of a fire hydrant across the street of my block so i could take a shower because i come back from the gym and i come out the shower to hear my neighbor calling my name. Now im thinkin shes callin me to bug me about puttin my car in her driveway so i didnt answer her. Then my sister comes home and tells that I have a ticket on my windshield so was like NO WAY. Then shes all like na .. im jokin. So im gettin all ready to go out and i walk up to my car and there really is a ticket .. not 1 but 2 damn tickets on my windshield. 1 was for parking 6 feet from a fire hydrant and the second one was for parkin on a no standing zone. $175! I was like OMG .. talk about bad luck. Anyways .. im not paying for that bullshit .. im goin to court because they always cut down the no standing pole and 6 feet? I mean come on .. did they take a damn ruler and measure?? So the rest of the week was turning out good .. went to 2 barbques and drank a lot. Then comes monday evening when i was driving back on my way to virginia. I was by ocean ave and shore parkway. Im goin like no more than 25 to 30mph and the light was red for me but i was still at a braking distance so then the light turns green and i push the gas again. All of a sudden I notice a green honda accord crossing the intersection so of course my first reaction was to brake and then i pulled the emergency brake...but it still wasnt enought time and to make things worse .. it was drizzling that day also. Well .. i T-Boned the accord. My airbags came out and my car spun like 120 degrees. I was like stunned. Thank God i was wearing my seatbelt i would have went through the windshield. So then i get out the car to check on the accord and i ask the driver if she was ok .. she didnt answer because she didnt talk english and her husband who was in the passanger seat goes "no she isnt ok .. she pregnant". So im all like .. OMG .. so then i called 911 and the ambulance and cops came in matter of minutes. Thankfully i hit her on the passanger side .. and not her side. We were all taken to the hospital in emergency care. I wasnt even all that hurt cept my neck and back was hurting so they put me on a stretcher and put a damn neckbrace on me and then they put this oxygen thing over my mouth. This has got the best the scariest situation ive probably ever been in .. and then when i got to the hospital they started putting all these wires on my hands and i couldnt even sit up to see what they were doing because my neck was hurting. They took xrays of me and thankfully nothing was broken. I asked the doctor how the people in the other car were doing and they said they were doing just fine so thats a huge relief. So then i couldnt come to work the next day so i took the first flight back to virginia.
And to make things worse .. 2 days after my accident was my 20th birthday. So much for a happy birthday to me. So im here in virginia stuck with no car. And you cant get anywhere without a car. Im gonna have to ride back to nyc with someone and try to catch someone goin back on sunday.
When i looked at my car before i left .. it looked kinda toteled. I guess ill have to see when/if i get to go home tomorrow. As the way things are lookin for me now .. can things get any worse?
