Paging the Winchesters, I've found a strip of cursed high way

[sweetprince]

Some of you will remember that on August 4th last year the brakes on Florence's car failed on 280 North near the Lawrence Expressway Exit, resulting in a broken car for Flo and a broken arm for me. Despite a hysterical woman having a near epic freak-out I was the only one who was actually hurt. Although Flo got pretty scratched up when she jumped around to the passenger side to pull me out.

Well, today, on the way back to Palo Alto to see Superbad, bananafish, torturemysoul, and I were rear-ended by a car who couldn't stop in time after another car's tire blew. Nobody was hurt, although I bit down really hard on my teeth and they've been kind of aching ever since. If all goes well they won't fall out. I'm trusting you, teeth.

Hopefully Colleen and Erica will still consent to drive with me after this.

However, I should like to point out that this rear-ending business happened...you guessed it...on 280 North near the Lawrence Expressway Exit almost exactly a year after my first accident. Lawrence Expressway, I HATE YOU!

Good grief. Thank goodness you weren't seriously hurt. (I hope.)
I think you need to find another way around. :)
*Hugs* Lauren.

This sounds like a good idea, yeah! ;p

I'm glad you're okay. You are hereby instructed to avoid the 280 for the entire month of August from next year on.

So you missed Superbad? When you go see it, it will make you feel better.

Nope, we made it to Superbad, my car wasn't actually in that bad shape--the dude who hit me though, hooie! JUSTICE, THERE IS JUSTICE!

[cerberos.livejournal.com]

Haha! Little victories.

At least Superbad sort of made the evening brighter? I'm still sorry about your car, although I blame the asshole who hit us because he was talking on his phone. *bats at your face*

*huggles* Superbad did make everything brighter. And you too. And chicken strips.

AAUAUGH! You are banned from driving on that road! Never again! No more car smashy!

Poor teeth, I clench alot too so I know the feeling :(

Also? THIS IS WHY IT IS ILLEGAL TO TALK ON A CELLPHONE WHILE DRIVING IN NY!!!

*bows head* Yes, mommy.

(Heheheh, after the accident I was talking on my cell to my mother as I merged back into traffic and nearly swerved into a tow truck. Not the smartest of me)

*snuggles you* OW. Yeah, time to find an alternate route. Or get the boys in to perform an exorcism on you/it.

I think I'm going to have to go with the boys, because there's no way I'm going to drive down 84 to 101 every time I want to go somewhere. 101 traffic is horrendous. *hugs you back*
