A Car Accident Memoir

[ryuko_midori]

It is twelve-o'clock AM on Wednesday, February eighteenth, two thousand and nine. I am leaning on the window of the Osseo, Wisconsin state patrol car, staring up at the swirling snow above me. The lit cherry on the top of the car blinks blue onto the flakes and they look like confetti raining down on me. 'Congratulations' the red-gray night sky is

I'm so happy you're okay!

...and gosh, for just being in a car accident like that... I don't know if it's weird to make a comment like this on something so serious, but...I mean...although I wouldn't wish an accident on anyone you sure as hell wrote about it beautifully.

(that was on purpose, shhhh)

I am glad I'm OK too. XD;

REMIND YOU OF BACK IN THE DAY AT ALL? (the writing)

[silverpoet01]

For sure! :) Surely could be a daily writing prompt, but you have the pictures to really be one with the subject matter. O.o

I am glad I thought to get some. I'm bad at remembering to do these things.

Yikes! I'm glad you're OK! D:

[ryuko_midori]

Me too! I already miss my car, but it's kind of fun to wonder what kind of a new one I'll get.

[remus_shepherd]

Wow. Glad you're all right.

[ryuko_midori]

Thanks. :)

Oh Abby thank God you're okay. The car is just a car and can be replaced. You however can not. Please do make sure to see a doctor soon to check for any after effects, especially things like whiplash or internal bruising. I can almost guarantee you're going to be sore.

Sounds like one of those days where you should have just not gotten out of bed in the first place. I wish we could turn back time for you.

[ryuko_midori]

Not hurt at all, honestly. No internal nothing. I'm no sorer than usual one day after. And yeah, it might have been nice to stay one more day in MI instead of having this happen, but it's really no use to bother worrying about turning back time...

Hooray for notdeadness!
