Wow, what a day already! I woke up this morning at 515 (about 15 minutes earlier than I usually do) to download Confessions on a Dance Floor, the newest release from Madonna on iTunes, so I could listen to it in the truck this morning. Well everything worked as it was supposed to and I happily burned to CD. Then I got ready and went out to the car only to discover that it was snowing.
Long story short got up to the office and picked up my truck. Driving through town was thinking ‘wow this is slippery’. Got onto the highway and noticed people were driving way to fast for current road conditions. Then as I was passing a Mustang, that obviously wasn’t ready for winter conditions, doing about 60kms/hr the driver lost control and HIT ME! Yeah, go figure. So I pulled over, to check damage and such, opened the door and promptly lost my footing because of the ice. I ended up hanging off the door of the truck for a few seconds before I balanced. The damage to my truck involved a scrape where about two inches of paint came off. The Mustang however was not so fortunate as his bumper is going to have to be replaced. So I decided it would be prudent to re-schedule this morning’s work and go home until people remember how to drive in snow. It’s funny you’d think that it would be the big trucks that have problems driving in snow but it’s not. It’s the jack-asses in passenger vehicles and pick-up trucks who think they’re great drivers who cause accidents. Coming through town on the way back to the office this pickup truck in front of me was going so fast he was fish tailing all over the place when he stopped to turn I couldn’t resist and lowered my window and gave him the finger. That’s when I noticed he was drinking coffee while he drove badly. Unbelievable I know but true!
PS – Confessions on a dance floor is in my opinion one of Madonna’s best releases in years!
