Near-Death Experiences

My poor roommate had the worst day! When she dropped me off at work today, it was raining sheets. She said it was barely possible to see in front her. Apparently, some idiot in front of her pulled to a complete halt on Glades for no reason. Aly had to slam her breaks and she spun out in the middle of the street. A cop saw the problem and asked if she was alright; he gave the other guy a ticket. So just when she thinks she’s free and clear, she’s driving onto campus and lightning strikes a tree right in front of her. It split one of the branches off, and it landed right in front of her car. She had to slam her breaks again. She said it took three security guards to move the branch out of the road. I was amazed when she told me. I guess if you look at it in an optimistic way, she had a very lucky day.

 For future reference for anyone reading this: Stay alert when it’s raining!!!
