Nightfall's Not so Incredible Journey

Nightfall

Sage of the Scarred Lands
Well folks ole NF is alive and kicking. I can thank someone up there, or maybe down there, for my success at living. Today I was scheduled to start school at Marshall University. However I, being the usual slacker I am, waited for a good bit to leave. (There were some communication issues too). Anyway after I left, I realized I left my keyboard and mouse back at home. (Don't ask.) Anyway so I go back home, turn around and head back down the road. When I finally did get a chance, I admit to doing some pretty scary/crazy, speeds. It was also raining heavily and this car that I use (Mercury sable) isn't that good in the rain. Prone to hydro-planing. So no shock to some, I skidded off the road, into a guard rail and there by preceded to roll three times. I got out relatively unscatched. The car...was another story. Some people near by had already called 911. So I used a friendly person's cell to call my mom, let her know I was okay. My brother drove down, and had to come rescue me from the hospital. Overall I'd rate Sunday major suckage. Monday wasn't too bad, about 95% of my stuff survived. (Sadly my copies of A Clash of Kings, A Storm of Swords and A Feast of crows, all in hardback, didn't make it.)

So I'm alive. Still a little unsure about the future. But at least I have internet access! :)

Glad to hear you are OK.

Sorry about your stuff.

As someone who has Depth Perception & Night Vision Issues, I'm a heck of a lot more cautious when I drive than most drivers.

Plus after 1 speeding ticket 5 years ago, I figured there isn't any point in trying to get someplace 15 minutes faster vs Ticket + Insurance Cost.

Hope things work out soon,

PS. No, I haven't forgotten about my Creature Collection 2 3.5 Update. It's still on my 2-do list.
 

V,

good to hear about that.

Eh it's only stuff. While the power cord to my monitor is gone, I'm out deodorant, I still have most the esstenials AND a phone if I need something.

I had depth perception issues too. My problem was I was in a hurry and didn't factor in the weather as a hazard.
 



Nightfall,

Glad you're OK. Don't worry about the car or the stuff: All that can be replaced. It's the body parts that you can't get spares of that you should worry about. If they're OK, you're good to go. ;)
 

free,

What would it do without me indeed. ;)

Tree,

Yeah well it's only small by mortality standards. Financially, it's another story.

Zander,

I got all the parts I got when I came into this world.
 



Vraille,

No, but I refrain from commenting more on the grounds it might upset the religious balance here at En World.

Wycen,

Yep. Alive, kicking, and trying to find a gaming group in Huntington WV. So far nada.
