It Can Only Get Better

Busy, would not even begin to describe these past four days. I had to coach a High School Rowing team this weekend on top of my other job and school work. I did have some time for myself though, which was nice. Saturday, Sunday and Monday I coached. Saturday night I went to the movies with one of my good friends from my old rowing team. We saw Dear John. I didn't cry, which was surprising because I'm a sap and I cry about everything. It wasn't sad to me because the man playing the father in it was from Step Brothers and every time I saw him on screen quotes from Step Brothers flowed through my head and I would start to smile or laugh. Channing Tatum was good in the movie, but didn't strike any emotion from me. Everyone around me was hysterically crying. Sunday was valentine's day and I worked and coached and then later that night I went laser tagging with the Rowing Team I coached. It was a lot of fun actually and we weren't the oldest people there. Yesterday, however was an extremely bad night. I didn't want to make this public, but I got into a car accident on my way to syosset with one of my friends, gabe and I was making a left on to 25A and a black cadillac going around 70 or 80 mph in a 40 mph zone sped up the hill on 25A and side swiped the front of my car. The other man's cadillac was completely totaled because after he hit me he lost control of his car and hit into a tree. My car was pushed in a bit in the front and had a minor leak from the radiator. Luckily no one was hurt and the other driver isn't coming after me money-wise or blaming me for the accident, but now I am without a car and my parents have to deal with all the financial issues with the insurance. Before my parents and I had two cars to share and now we have three drivers and one car, but we are getting a rental car that the insurance is paying for. It was a terrible night last night, but I am very blessed to still be standing and walking because if the other driver had hit my door there's a good chance I wouldn't be sitting in my room writing this right now. There are so many What If's that I am trying not to think of and this being my first accident will hopefully be my last accident.
