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.

I know what you are going through. I have gone in the ditch more then I would like to count, few of them are not counted under law or parents....shhhh...and recently took a couple 360's on a two lane highway and was able to miss several cars....*hugs* you will drive like an old lady for a while, but it will pass and all is well...breath, drink something warm and sweet, and remember there are people who are there to help, talke and even lend a hug.
