Drivin' Me Crazy

A dreaded call from my ex:
"Kelsey's (our daughter) had a wreck but she's alright."

A few minutes later I get a call from my daughter to fill me in:

K: "Dad?"
me: "Are you okay?"
K: "yeah..."
me: "what happened?"
K: "...it was right after school and the roads were wet... I wasn't on the phone... and I wasn't fooling with the radio... I might have been following a little too close."
me: "what did you hit?"
K: "... a Jeep Commander... it didn't even hardly get a scratch on it"
me: "... and your car?"
K: "... it is probably totalled... they towed it away"
me: " ..... "
K: "the policeman said I was only going 10mph... my airbag didn't even deploy... it could have been a lot worse."
me: "well you probably learned a valuable lesson"
K: " a valuable lesson? ... I didn't do anything wrong"
me: "Okay... you've had a valuable experience" (I am such a pushover)

LOL.

She didn't do anything wrong.

Except rear end someone. ;)

So glad she's okay, Bart. Those phone calls are scary as hell.

I fear or the day that my kids get that age. Why is it illegal to chain them to their beds?

I'll admit that I'm snickering...

Hey where the fuck did my comment go? I think it got eaten by your blog.

Ok I said: She said herself she was following someone a little too close...that is something she did wrong and should LEARN from.

But I shouldn't talk because I follow people too close ALL the time.
