I was in a little car accident yesterday.
It was about 3:30 in the afternoon, and I was leaving work.
I was merging onto 2-64 West, when for some reason, I thought I was going to hit the car in front of me. So I both braked and tried to get back in my lane.
Come to think of it, I'm not sure what happened, but this sounds about right. Anyway, I skidded and spun a bit and lightly smashed into the concrete wall that serves as a barrier between the road and a big drop off into a ravine.
I was pretty shaken, but I was otherwise fine. I didn't hit anyone else as I careened across the lane, and the car itself didn't take much damage. It was just embarrassing and scary and all that. I called my mom and told her what happened, and then called branden and let him know what was happening. Mom came and met me and I drove the car home. So really, it was a small accident, but I'm lucky no one else was involved.
Whoo.
