Yesterday morning was kind of dreary. There was a light rain falling as I was driving to work, and sure enough, since it was Monday, there was quite a lot of traffic. In case you’ve never driven in rush hour traffic in Nashville, the important thing for you to know is that Nashvillians freak out when it rains and loose any and all ability to drive like normal human beings.

Sure enough as I was entering the on ramp to I440 from I65 the person in front of obviously wasn’t paying attention and had to slam on their brakes really hard. This in turn caused me to have to slam on my breaks really hard. Unfortunately, the girl behind me missed the the memo that we were all slamming on our breaks really hard and decided to slam into me instead.

Normally this really wouldn’t have been that bad because, Normally, I would have been driving Purp McGurt, my purple sunfire that has 180,000+ miles and has seen better days in the looks department. However, since very few things normal ever happen to me, it turns out that I was driving my new Montero Sport that I had literally just made the first payment on that day. The reason I wasn’t driving the purple car is because my friend Manish actually wrecked his car last week and his insurance doesn’t cover rental cars. Since I’m a “balla” and have two cars, I decided I’d help him out.

Looking on the bright side, the woman had insurance and they’re taking care of me. Plus I didn’t get hurt like last time so I’m sure all will be well.
