I'd never been in a crash till today. I had driven for 6 years without doing it, and although it wasn't severe, I feel I ought to have a time out or something, since it was my fault. There was no texting or calling or loud music involved, but there was a moderate dose of spaciness on hand. That's all it takes to rear end someone, of course.
On the way to work - my mother drove me - we stopped at starbucks and along with my chai, I helped myself to a decent portion of half n half by pouring it in a handy water bottle. I'm not sure why I do things like that. I could easily buy my own half n half. I guess it's just comical holding a water bottle a fourth of the way full of half n half. It's one of those "clothes on my cat" situations. Pair two things that don't go and it makes a joke. Half n half + water bottles. Clothes + cats. Bro hoes + books.
What's sweet though is my new nail color. It's a charcoal colored China Glaze that I renamed Dumbly's Crispy Hand Takes a Crunchy Swipe. It's implicative of the moment in Half Blood Prince where Dumbledore has to wipe his blackened hand across that dark cave wall, offering his blood so it'll open up into the cavern with the lake. Its original name was Black Diamond, but that's not exciting nor implicative of anything. I like to personalize my possessions. That's the reason my phone's name is Jarvis, my computer's name is Chauncey, my car's name is Scout Finch, and my razor scooter's name is Penny. It's why I have a nickname for most of the people I know that is, most of the time, an offensive way to tease them.
Also brightening my spirits is my recent tea shopping trip. I picked up my normal earl grey, some jasmine green, some regular ole mint, and some peach black. My beautiful tea boxes are adorning my desk in the following manner, with mother honey bear, tea shepherd.

I rather like being called Steef. And only by you. Maybe Hannah too.
If anyone else did I might hit them, and then tell them to refer to me by my proper moniker; Dr. Steve Goddamn Brown.
Also, I'm assuming from your blogging that you weren't injured, but either way, I hope you're well.
I've tried ever so desperately to like tea, but the only time I've ever enjoyed any type of tea is when my high school theater teacher made me chai tea when I was sick right before a show.
Also - I feel you on the rear-ending thing. I didn't rear end someone, BUT I got a speeding ticket. I was so proud of my ticket-less self, but alas, I've joined the crowd of my peers in that department.
That is a wonderful name for a nail polish, by the way. I'm currently wearing a pink that I cannot make any connections to a color naturally seen in life, so it's lacking a nickname at the moment.
oh no! I hope scout finch isn't too severely injured (or expensive to fix). And you as well.
6 years is a long time to go before your first accident, if you think about it. I hope I can go that long.
honey bear! <3
he looks so happy.
dress your car in a ham! dress your car in a ham!
