Perspective While Spinning at 70mph

 What a Wednesday. I left work an hour early to meet my boyfriend and look at couches for our new condo. Turns out, that wasn't in the cards. On the way up, while going 70mph on the interstate, a semi merged into my right front tire and spun me. The next time I looked out my windows I was perpendicular to the semi who was still coming towards me. At this point...things started to go out of focus, and come into perspective. I saw the semi's tires feet from my driver side door. You know those moments when you're driving, and you think, wow, that was close. Instead, the semi kept coming.

He swerved to the right again, and clipped my right back tire, spinning me again into the guardrail. I ricocheted between the guardrail and semi a few times before the semi broke loose and I came to a stop, miraculously on all four wheels, pointing mostly the right way.

 I walked away, my car certainly didn't. I had just cleaned it out, when I had to grab everything before it was towed, I was thanking my lucky stars that everything in the car fit in my purse. I haven't hit the mental wall yet, it feels surreal still. These pictures look like some other person's car, and when my boyfriend drove me home last night I entirely expected to see my car in the garage.
