Ugh.
It's weird how the human body/mind reacts to certain things.
Today I ran into the back of another car, and boy did it scare the crap out of me. I'm perfectly okay, so don't you all fret. I was stopped in traffic, and we started moving, and then I zoned out for a second and bang. I feel like such an idiot right now. Luckily the guy whose car I ran into was really nice, and we just exchanged details and he was thinking straight whereas I really wasn't.
I'm still a little shaken up, even though this happened in the middle of the day, which is what the first line is referring to. Mostly now I'm just stressed because I rely on my car a LOT. Like, uni on Friday - I think I can use my brother's car, but the last thing I want to do right now is borrow someone else's car. OR for work on Saturday, what do I do about that? And when the hell am I going to find the time to take my car to get quotes for repairs and UGH.
Not to mention that it was completely my fault, so I will have to pay for the damage. *headdesk*
I was actually having a really good morning too. Indo was fun, my lesson was actually really good - goes to show that a little good practice > lots of dodgy practice. I also headed into the city to study with sine_animo for a while, which helped cheer me up a bit even if we didn't really talk much.
Thank goodness I have no plans and no obligations tomorrow though.

You will need to take things slowly now, going back into the car and taking your time, some people can pick up and carry on like nothing has happened but they are the ones likely to crash again, if you take your time and build up confidence again you'll be back to confident driving in no time. :D

I'll be alright, I was fine driving home after and I was pretty shaky then. I'll just be a lot more wary from now on.
