Yesterday, was probably the strangest day in my life. I was hit by a car while roller-blading. Don't worry, I am okay. I just got a few bruises and cuts/scrapes. But I mean, honestly, I really think Charlie is right. We do live epic lives...I mean, I have a minor heart attack and now, I got hit by a car. The universe is just throwing every goddamn negative force at me these days. But I will triumph! Fuck you universe! lol...but not really, I love you universe, just cut me some slack.
So anyways, here's how it all went down. I was roller-blading near the YMCA in my hometown. I was gliding down this hill and there was this guy in the middle of the sidewalk. I warned the guy that I was going to pass him on the right, but later, I found out he was slightly...'slow,' if you know what I mean. So anyways, I was concentrated on not hitting this guy. The girl in the car, didn't stop at the stop sign like she should, while exiting the YMCA, and didn't see me coming. Well, of course, I CAN'T STOP ON A DIME....and she hit me. According to her, I performed three flips in the air, and landed some 45 feet away...blocking all lanes of traffic.
So, she gets out of her car and she is freaking out...like that's going to help. When I opened my eyes, my first thought was " Is my ipod okay?" I know that sounds lame, but my ipod is like...attached to my body...I use it about 35% of the day...and then I was concerned about my elbow, since it was raging with pain. I just stared at the blue sky. I mean, I remember asking myself: " Did I REALLY just get hit by a car? That shit only happens in movies..." But in the end, I really did get hit by one. So the YMCA gals came and helped me out. The police and paramedics were summoned, and I had to go to the E.R....but I'm fine, just aches and pains. I hope that girl has learned her lesson...PEDESTRIANS HAVE THE RIGHT-OF-WAY BITCH!....and fucking stop at a stop sign.
If she couldn't see me...a 6'2'' man in a white shirt, then she sure is NOT going to see a 7yr old boy walking. I'm just glad it was me who was hit instead of some boy or girl. It was just inconvenient because I had to spend a lot of time at the hospital... so I guess this page is dedicated to stop signs, and those who obey them....OBEY THEM!
