I was in a car accident earlier tonight. Everyone is okay, but it is going to be my fault, for sure.

This girl and her boyfriend stopped suddenly for an ambulance. The roads were very slick, so trying to avoid them resulted in my wheels locking and causing me to slide right in to them. I don’t have a photo of the rear of their car, but the damn thing only had what appeared to be superficial wounds. I wish I could say the same for mine.

Good luck on the paperwork aftermath.

Just to break up your growing list of JASONS! (hehe) Glad you’re fine. Glad you’re fine. Sorry about your car. I guess I’ll let you live even though you’re blowing off the opening night of my show! Get some rest, Sick Boy.

Thanks everyone.

Not in a rental quite yet. I made a claim with my insurance agent yesterday, but forgot to ask.

I’m recovering from a swollen and sore throat, so hopefully I can get all of this under control here very soon.

[...] I failed to mention in my previous post about the car wreck that I was starting to get sick that evening. I went to bed Monday night with a sore throat and woke up feeling much worse, with a temperature and swollen glands. Of course, I couldn’t go to work so that is two days of vacation time lost. I’m still getting over it, but I’m feeling much better now. [...]
