the day just needs to end!

[malta blue]

So it took me over an hour to get home due to snow, slick roads and creative parking jobs on the highway.

I finally get home, skid trying to pull in the driveway and barely miss a tree.

I get myself in the driveway, get out and mutter something like "that was a shitty drive", at which point I fall flat on my ass in the driveway, purse goes flying and of course it is not secured shut so everything is all over.

:rofl::cry::banghead::rofl:

1. are you ok?

i'm glad you got home safely. just hunker down for the night, be good to yourself and don't forget the tea :)

[malta blue]

2. my butt hurts.

:rofl:

I am supposed to go to a friend's house for dinner - they live on the same road, just a mile or so away, but somehow I don't think I will be going unless the snow stops.


I should also get outside and put my car IN the barn, instead of next to it - save myself some snow removal.

I won't forget the tea - it is Kava tea - have you tried it before?

[fizzgig]

3. i'm guess that's kava kava, right?

i've not had it in tea, but i took it when i was younger to help with my stress and anxiety levels and it worked fairly well.

and yes, get your sore butt out there and move that car :P

[malta blue]

8. It is the kava kava....

it has a funky taste IIRC but it did make me sleepy...

Not gonna move the car - screw it. :P

[DarkTirade]

5. The real question is... would it be easier/safer to walk than to drive?

:P

[malta blue]

9. walking is not really an option

no sidewalks - busy road :banghead:

[DarkTirade]

13. Ewww. Yeah, I've been there.

No slick roads, this was in FL. But I lived near a college campus so drunk drivers are about equal to regular drivers on slick roads.

4. could be worse, you could have hit the tree

:hug:

[malta blue]

10. true - or participated in the demolition derby on the highway

[tigereye]

6. that was me about 2 weeks ago!

I drove well until I skidded into the parking lot of the place I was going...


:hug:

[malta blue]

11. I also skidded coming down the driveway of the bank

and some lady gave me a dirty look :shrug:

:hug:

Today is almost over :woohoo:

7. Thats why I don't do ice.

Well at least you didn't do what I did a few years back..Slam into a low hanging ice covered branch hurting your face..ride in to work on public transport and after looking in the mirror discover you went all that way with both tree sap on your face AND have a swollen and slightly bleeding nose..:banghead:

[malta blue]

12. wow. just wow.

that is some ride to work :banghead:


I don't like the ABS on my new car either - my old one would not skid like that. :nuke:

[BeachBaby]

14. You don't do ice?

Everything is starting to make sense now.

We must talk - ice could be the answer to all your problems.

Wait. What are we talking about again? :hide:

:rofl:

[jobycom]

15. I'm sorry.

But I'm laughing so hard I'm crying! Ohgod! I can just see it!

Okay, sigh. Breathe. I'm better now. I'm okay.

Oh BTW, are you okay?

[malta blue]

16. I laughed too!

:rofl::rofl:

I am sooooo ready for tomorrow. :woohoo:

I am okay, my rear end, while well padded, is a little tender at this point. :blush:

Broken butts usually do.

At least you avoided wrecking the car? :D I guess there is somewhat of a bright side there. :hug:
