Don't even know where to start! Coming home from my grandson's T-ball game, Jerry and I got sandwiched in between a Nissan Sentra and a Ford pick-up while waiting for a red light to change. We felt a big thud and I cracked the back of my head on the headrest of my seat.

What happened was that the Nissan didn't make the stop and rear ended us, pushing us into the pickup. Good thing the guy in the pick up was on the ball because Jerry and I weren't!

The guy in the Nissan kept asking us all if we were okay and if we had insurance. The guy in the pickup suggested we move off the road more. The guy in the Nissan took the opportunity to jump back in his car and left the scene. The guy in the pickup had already called 911 so he called back and told the dispatcher we had a hit and run. It wasn't 20 minutes later and the cops had the guy under arrest. Actually, there were 4 guys in the Nissan.

Everybody seems alright except Jerry's car and me. Poor little Miata got scrunched from the back and the front but Jerry was able to drive it home. I've got a headache and the muscle on the right of my neck seems to be getting tighter. Hate to see how sore I'll be in the morning!

The sincher is... I've never been in a car wreck before!! That happened a little over two hours ago and I'm just now beginning to settle down from shaking all over and I'm sick to my stomach, probably from the adrenaline. I've got this feeling of having dreamt it rather than having gone through it in reality. This is so weird!!! It could have been a lot worse, I'm sure, but...

Am I being a baby?? I just wish I could erase it... as if it never happened! C'mon! It wasn't that big a deal! We all walked away from it!
