Car Accidents

[Jowy]

I hope that clears up soon, Crystal. Are you going to take the driver to court?

I've been in one serious accident before. A while ago a friend of mine was driving us back from Barnes and Noble. Without looking eight feet in front of him, he drove his explorer straight into a big ass yellow telephone pole. I was riding shotgun and in the process of putting my seatbelt on when he rammed it at a solid twenty miles per hour. My head hit the windshield and the brim of my hat deflected a lot of the impact. I walked out of the car with some glass in my forehead and a few slight lacerations. No real injuries outside of that.

My buddy though, he lost his mind. He hit the concrete and got in the fetal position and started bawling. The cops were confused as he sustained no bodily harm whatsoever and had two other cars anyway. A bunch of people came out to see what the smurf just happened about two minutes after that. My old kung-fu teacher from 2003 is there and apparently a full blown doctor now. He gives me a once over and just says "lighting a cigarette after possible head trauma is a bad idea". After that happened, the gal from the Starbucks inside brings me an iced coffee, bandaids, and advil. Walk a mile or so back to my car, stop at Wal-Mart to get some peroxide and gauze. Elementary school crush is leaving as I come in and giving me a kiss on the cheek? How can this day get any better?
