scary.

Today one of those things happened that was truely scary. And scary is the right word.... when there's nothing you can do but listen and obey and trust... everything else is out of your hands....

I was driving on 75, in the slow lane because i had the dog with me.... listening to music, on my way to my mom's... i looked to my left and saw a car in the HOV lane. All i really saw were sparks, and the tire come off... all the way off. it flew/ bounced all the way to my side of the interstate. i saw it coming my way- right at me.  and i heard "speed up". without hesitation i pressed the gas and held my breath... i heard the tire hit the wall on the other side of me. wow.

I had my phone next to me so i called 911. i dont know if the other guy hit the wall or not. i knew he wasn't going anywhere with 3 tires....

and then i went home... why did i speed up? why did i listen? what would have happened had i not? what if i'd frozen or let go or shut my eyes?
does it even matter?

i hope that guy is okay, and im thankful dizzy and i are safe....
