the day i almost died.

last night i had a lesson with a girl who was terrified of driving.

so i spent two hours assuring her that driving is nothing to be afraid of and that she should not move to new york for college so she doesnt have to drive anywhere.


after i dropped her off, i drove to the gas station to fill up the company car before i took it back to the office.


on my way home i was driving in the left lane of two lanes. when i noticed a cars headlights swerve into my lane ahead.

then everything slowed down.

i figured he was just going to turn into the driveway eventually.

little did i know... this wasn't meant to be.

as i drove forward i noticed that the car which was now driving directly at me in my own lane, wasn't going to move.

as he came closer i started honking the horn and slowing down since we were both going about 40 mph. finally at the last possible chance i swerved to the right and managed to avoid this idiot who nearly hit me head on.

the only reason i was able to swerve is because when the light turns green i like to get to the speed limit in a spirited manner. this made it so no one was on my right when i needed to swerve.

so i get the fuck out of the way and immediately look in my rearview for this dickface.

i then proceed to pull a hand brake turn in the middle of the street to go find this guy.
i wanted to pull him out of his car by his hair and punch his face off.

i skidded around a full 180 degrees and took of going 60 mph down this road trying to catch up to this guy. and i'm sure he saw me whip around, the same way all the cars behind me saw me.

as i chased him down the street i was almost gonna pull close enough to see what kind of car it was when the light turned red.

this ended my quest to end his life.


i drove around the block a few times but i didnt see the car anymore.

on my way back home i noticed a lot of cop cars circling the area. but i never saw the other car again.

the funny thing is as all this was happening. and it happened in a matter of seconds...

nothing flashed before my eyes.

nothing.

i was almost disappointed.


i did however remember my dreams i've been having since i was a kid about getting into a head on collision in a white car. the company car is white. it kinda freaked me out.

but no life reel playing before my eyes. maybe that happens only when youre really gonna die.
not when some dickface scares the shit out of you.

however, i do remember the 1st thing i thought about was my daughter.

so i went to go see her immediately after this.

still shaking and scared of my own shadow on the street, i arrived and had a strawberry shake.

later that night i put her to sleep.

something i had not done in ages.

i just want everyone to know something.

if i ever die in a car wreck. something went terribly wrong.

cause im a mutha fuckin great driver.


(im sorry this isnt a very good post, i feel like shit right now and am very hungry)
