Well let me start out by saying, morphine is one hell of a drug. I was on my way home last night from hockey and long story short, I let a tailgater get the best of me. I was too focused on the fact he was on my ass, and not the road ahead of me. As I was looking behind me, I took a blind turn toooo fast and lost control. Here’s the aftermath. ![http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs122.snc1/5253_553759664473_44202344_32944911_7777113_n.jpg](http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs122.snc1/5253_553759664473_44202344_32944911_7777113_n.jpg) ![http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs142.snc1/5253_553759694413_44202344_32944917_1996164_n.jpg](http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs142.snc1/5253_553759694413_44202344_32944917_1996164_n.jpg) ![http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=32944912&id=44202344](http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=32944912&id=44202344) LISTEN, i don’t need a scolding. I know I was COMPLETELY in the wrong. I let a tailgater get the best of me, and that goes against everything I ever preach. It was a stupid mistake, and loss of control for a SPLIT second. I can only be thankful to be able to be typing this less than 12 hours after it happened. I shouldn’t be alive. Just be careful guys, it can happen so quickly. Be safe, be smart. Learn from this. I CERTAINLY WILL. To be able to walk away from this with a broken ankle and a knicked tendon in my thumb is BEYOND LUCKY. ![http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs122.snc1/5253_553759669463_44202344_32944912_3966044_n.jpg](http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs122.snc1/5253_553759669463_44202344_32944912_3966044_n.jpg) flame on. ---

I don’t know weither to laugh or cry, or both. I am numb mentally right now. This will take a few days to sink in. Worst part is I wasn’t being some “boy racer.” I just lost focus and my cool for a split second. I am just happy to be here to learn my lesson. Next time, I’m just going to pull over. ---

Holy shit man, that is crazy. I’m glad you’re okay though, most people will look at a wreck like that and ask how many people were killed and not how many people walked away. ---

You know what the worst part is. This is the first time I have ever has so much as a FENDER BENDER. I always considered myself a good driver and I guess I took that for granted. THis certainly changes things. I guess it goes to show yah, just a split second of lost focus, and bad things can happen. ---

Your car splitting like that more than likely saved you from further injury by dispersing a lot of the energy. ---

> [@glitch](#): > > Your car splitting like that more than likely saved you from further injury by dispersing a lot of the energy. no doubt. It’s just a bit overwhelming right now for me to consider that a foot or two in either direction and the tree would have it on the drivers side door. UGH ---
