Well, to be perfectly honest, I fucking hate myself. I KNOW (as do several other people) what a poor driver I am when I'm tired. I always say that I'm fine when I'm not, and it's dangerous. I hate, hate, hate that I'm too fucking stubborn to be logical.
logical: "It is both dangerous to you, other people, and your brand new car - don't drive while sleepy."
not logical: "Drivin' home! Weeeeee!"
So, in short, last night, I side-swiped a sign and fucked my passenger side mirror. I'm SUPER lucky that's all that happened. I could have run into a telephone pole. I could have hit another car. I could have fucking killed a pedestrian.
Dumb.
I'm going to FL next month and St. Thomas in April. I was hoping to have spending money, but I don't know how much it's going to cost to replace the mirror. It didn't fall off or anything, just the glass shattered, but the back now has a dent/scratch in it, and I Just got the car in October. I don't want dents/scratches in it already. :(
I'm absolutely 100% serious that I'm not driving tired again. I'll sleep in my car if I have to.
