It started snowing like mad. I went off the road. If I'd slid another couple of feet, I would have probably gone nose-first into a mini-ravine. At which point I would have been COMPLETELY screwed. I called 911 and got a ride home.
Just called a towing service--it might be a couple of hours (given this kind of weather, sounds like I'm not the only one who had a problem), but they took my name and number and will be giving me a call. Best part? When I said that the idea of driving on those roads right now scared the crap out of me (which it does--I was completely honest about it), he said they could tow my car to me.
This is going to cost me an arm and a leg. But I won't have to drive.
Now I'm just waiting for this call, hoping that my car's okay, and trying not to cry again. Talked to my dad--it sounds like our insurance covers this. So...yeah. I just get to hang out and wait now, I guess, and hope for the best.
And yes, I'm just fine. Not a scratch. Just...really shaken. And have had a really good cry.
...might call into work tomorrow. I just want to curl up in bed and not move for the rest of the weekend.
