"At the beginning of the day I went to the laundromat with a friend, we were in a hurry. As we waited for the washers we were deep cleaning my car. It had not been scrubbed since I got it a year and a half ago. And I had mentioned that for once I was going to have a perfectly clean and organized apartment, and also a clean car, and I was just a couple dollars away from having all of my bills caught up. I was like wow I a peak adult! Haha. So we run out of time to dry clothes. So I take him back to his house quick so I can go finish my work at my house really fast and then I got done and went to go pick him back up to go dry laundry finally. (While I was finishing at my house I was talking with a client about cars for some reason and how I had driven a totaled car for 9 months before i don’t remember why) so I go to pick up my friend and he says he’s waiting for a pizza. I offer to go start our laundry and come back and he says she’s there. So she gets there we have pizza. We are watching the pizza lady struggle out of the driveway bc it’s busy. I laugh and I’m like no rush girl I get it. She leaves. I’m pulling out, and I’m telling my friend how it’s stressful bc the depth perception and how I wasn’t gonna risk our lives like that. I pulled out of the driveway and I get tboned. Airbags went off, I felt a full car hit me. We get pulled out, my shoes aren’t on, a stranger finds my shoes and glasses. The cop shows up. It was my fault. I am mildy concussed. Car gets towed. Insurance covers nothing. Laundry does not get dry. In my dream I woke up and I went to work like normal and then after work I had to go grab a bug and then after that I went home and I made a new friend on Facebook marketplace and then I'm running a very tight schedule so I go to pick up my friend to go to our laundry at the laundromat we get to the laundromat but now we're running out of time so we only have time to wash our clothes I have to go home to do a little bit of work and so I dropped my friend off at home at his house and I go home and I finished my work really quick and then we still have to go dry our clothes so I go and I pick him up and now we're sitting I'm sitting in this parking lot and I'm waiting for him to come outside and he says the pizzas on the way will you accept it when it gets here I was like should I just go to the dollar store really quick while I'm waiting and he's like yeah definitely do that and I was like well so I just sat there and I was just kind of waiting and um because I realized I wanted to go to Walmart instead later and then the pizza gets there and he comes outside and then he's like I got us this pizza for when we're drying our clothes I was like awesome let's go on get and um so we're just sitting there waiting for the pizza lady to get out of the way and um then she finally does I'm like yeah so then I'm going to make a turn and I turn out and I get t-boned and it was very interesting and the beginning of the day I was about to have my whole house clean and organized all of my bills were about to be paid and my car was getting deep-cleaned but then at the end of the day my car is totaled and nothing is really cut up but I'm still just fine you know it's interesting"
