Give Me a Brake!

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

I heard the Blog Angels singing when I read this story. Seriously – Christmas came early for me. Tiffany, if your girlfriend is mad at you for this, then she has issues beyond you and was just looking for a reason to be upset. Tell Naomi Campbell over there to suck it up. I’m surprised she’s not wearing a neck-brace!  Get that Queen of Drama a tiara!

Ladies, enjoy Tiffany’s story .. it’s a gem. Girl, you’re not alone if you hit your friend with a car, ON ACCIDENT!!

I think I’m writing this as therapy. I can laugh about it, but I’m still feeling awful because my good friend is not talking to me. We both live in the city (Chicago) and when I drop her off, I usually do it quickly at the curb because of heavy traffic as well as parked cars on either side of the street. I can’t idle or park. She has to jump out quickly so I don’t hold up traffic. Last week, I was dropping her off and thought she was going towards the back of the car. I immediately looked to make sure I could pull-out quickly in front of the on-coming car. Well, as I moved forward a little while looking out the side window, I suddenly felt something and heard a scream. I stopped immediately and jumped out of the car to find my friend on the ground. My girlfriend had walked in front of the car instead of behind! I hit her with my car! It happened in a matter of seconds and although I just nudged forward, the impact still knocked her over and sprained her wrist. She was a little over-dramatic by laying on the ground, screaming that she broke her arm and stopping traffic. Anyhow, I called her fiance and he ran downstairs. Both of them yelled at me saying I could’ve killed her and my irresponsibility went too far. What?? Yes, I take full responsibility for not checking in front of me, but she knew what direction I was moving in and I was going slow enough that she could’ve hit the top of my car to get my attention! There was no way I could’ve killed her!! Give me a break! I’ve sent flowers, cards and even money to pay for the doctor’s visit. She won’t respond. When I knocked on her door, her fiance answered and said she wasn’t ready to speak to me yet. It’s a crazy situation.

Tiffany, I once forgot to put on the emergency break and my car started rolling on top of me when I opened the trunk, but I did that myself. I guess you can say that I ran over myself. Now…that’s embarrassing.

I’m laughing FOR YOU right now. Let her sulk in her cave of pity. You’re too good for that nonsense and so is your car!
