Crash Man
I feel horrible this morning.
I'm lethargic and I've got a raging headache in a portion of my brain that usually doesn't generate pain for me. I honestly think I had a mild concussion yesterday when I backed my NEW Ford F-150 pickup into a light pole on my employer's parking lot. I was only going about five or ten miles per hour at impact, but it was enough to shake up my skull when I hit the head rest. The truck got whacked pretty good too.
I feel stupid for having had an accident only four days after getting my new truck. But shit like that happens when you least expect it. Right? I took my eyes off the mirrors long enough to wave goodnight to a fellow employee and that's all it took.
The truck can be repaired. I can heal. By this time next year it'll all be a vague memory.
I hope.
