LESSONS LEARNED FROM THIS:  SCRAPE YOUR WINDSHIELDS, DON'T DRIVE FAST ON ICY ROADS, AND WATCH FOR MOVING ROCKS.

I WAS LIVING IN MY OLD APARTMENT AT THE TIME AND MY ROOMATE, JACQUE WAS ON SOME TYPE OF VACATION IN THE CANARY ISLANDS AND IT WAS TIME TO GO TO WORK AND I WAS RUNNING LATE.  MY FRIEND CHAD WAS AT THE APARTMENT BURNING MP3'S FOR ME AND IT WAS GETTING TO BE 10:45 PM AND IT TAKES ME ABOUT 25 MINUTES TO GET TO WORK, MIND YOU THE TIME IT WOULD ADD FROM THE BAD WEATHER.

WE WERE WRAPPING THINGS UP, WE GET OUTSIDE AND IT WAS HORRIBLE.  SLEET ALL OVER THE CAR FROZEN ON THE WINDSHIELD.. ON THE GROUND... I WAS LIKE HELL.. IM GONNA HAVE TO HURRY IF I AM GOING TO MAKE IT ON TIME, SO NOT BEING GOOD IN RUSHY SITUATIONS I START THE CAR, GET OUT AND SCRAPE A LITTLE BIT, SO I CAN SEE OUT MY SIDE AND GET THE CAR A ROLLIN.  THE WINDOWS FOGGED UP FROM THE COLD AND WELL I COULDN'T SEE ALL THAT WELL, AND I TURNED OUR CORNER A LITTLE TOO FAR GOING OUT OF THE APARTMENT COMPLEX AND, FOR SOME REASON I COULDN'T GO ANYMORE AND I HEARD THIS BIG SCRAPE.  IM LIKE WHAT THE??? SO I OPEN THE DRIVERS DOOR AND LOW AND BEHOLD I WAS UP OFF THE GROUND.  I HAD DRIVEN UP ON THIS ROCK!!!! DON'T ASK ME HOW I DID IT.. I GUESS IT WAS JUST ENOUGH INCLINED FOR ME TO DO THIS!  IM LIKE OH HELL!  SO I GET OUT.. AND I SEE CHAD COMING AROUND THE CORNER!!! THINKING, IF I CAN GET A COUPLE OF GUYS... THEY CAN HELP ME LIFT MY CAR OFF OF THIS ROCK!  HE STOPS, AND GETS OUT OF HIS CAR AND JUST STARTED LAUGHING!!! I'M LIKE DUDE LOL.  SO I START RUNNING TO THE COMPLEX BESIDE ME (mind you this Steve guy is hotter then hell)  SO THINKING MAYBE IF I GOT STEVE... STUFFING MY PRIDE UP MY BUTT, HE COULD HELP ME.. ON THE WAY INTO HIS COMPLEX I SLID AND FALL.... AND I HEAR CHAD LAUGHING EVEN MORE.

STEVE COMES OUT AND THEY CAN'T GET THE CAR OFF OF THE ROCK.... SCARED THAT I WOULD DAMAGE MY OIL PAN, I SAID WELL I GUESS IM GONNA HAVE TO CALL INTO WORK DERRRR AND TELL THEM IM GONNA BE A LITTLE BIT LATE AND CALL A TOW TRUCK!  STEVE STAYED OUTSIDE AND CONSOLED ME, CHAD DROVE HOME.. AND HERE IS MY TELEPHONE CONVERSATION TO WORK.
