i was in an accident about two weeks ago. totally my fault, actually. i was coming home from an arts festival in state college (about two and a half hour drive from my apt.) when the traffic stopped suddenly....and i didn't. my car was mangled, about five grand worth of damage. the other two people, the one i hit and the one he was pushed into, suffered minor damage. the thing i'd like to share is - they were great. kind, understanding, no cries of whiplash or emotional trauma (at least not yet). i was surprised, because i do generally subscribe to the people suck philosophy. it made a rough, embarassing, and time consuming experience much easier on me. thought everyone would like to hear a positive, i know it helped me.
