Had we been going any faster, I would have flown through the windshield, and that would have been the end of me. Kapoof, no more Danny. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Don't scare me like that dammit!
I'm a cat. I ALWAYS land on my feet. That's my life. I couldn't be hurt. I used to think like that. Then I realised I was being an idiot. Okay, I figured that out after I lost something really really important to me but same difference.
I was in a car accident once. My brother was driving, I was reading a cell phone manual. Suddenly I heard this screech of tires and looked up just in time to see us impale into the back of another car. Just before impact this thought went through my mind: "I'm going to die. This is it, it's over. I've no more chances and I'm going to die." I know I take alot of risks and that's probably where that sprouted from but... Well, obviously, I didn't die, he didn't die, and no one was hurt. Except the car of course which was COMPLETELY totaled, leaking antifreeze and oil, the entire front smashed in. Oddly, I found the entire experience didn't faze me much. I just thought, "Well, now I've been in a car crash, how interesting." There's my screwed up mind for you.
