MORE FUN: So I was driving to Meijer on Saturday, even though it was snowing, because I needed to get groceries for today. Yeah, the snow was deep. Yeah, I was in the car, not the minivan. Yeah, they hadn't cleared Wackerly when I was going down it. But accelerating (the road is straight, after all)
seemed like a good idea. Trouble. That's all I have to say. As I was sliding around the road, trying to remember whether you steer into or out of skids (out of, apparently), I was fortunate enough to land myself up the curb on the opposite side of the road. Humiliating, yes. I should be (and am) grateful for the many, many people who stopped to offer to help (especially the man who let me use his cell phone to call my dad). But man, I felt like a f______ (as Camille might put it) idiot shoveling the car out for 45 minutes. And I didn't even do any damage. I just can't win sometimes.
