This morning I was driving Noah home from his sleepover and we came upon an accident. A car had flipped over and was sitting on its roof. There were glass and toys all over the road. It had just happened. There weren't any police or rescue there yet. People were cautiously approaching the car while others were standing there, clearly in shock.
It made me think of a motorcycle accident I saw. The bike was under a car and there was a sheet covering a body on the road.
This scene in a movie might make me sad, but in real life I felt stricken.
This morning I got smacked in the face with reality. I would have preferred coffee.

Tell me about it. The thought of a kid in there put me in such a state of shock that I just kept driving straight for a while and missed my exit.
