What a night! The rain is coming down so hard. Am I glad to get out of that office. This had to be the longest day in the history of the world. Hmm, looks like I might need a little air in that tire. Well, I’m not doing that tonight. That’s for sure. I’ll do it tomorrow. The sky is so dark. The highway will be foggy, no doubt. Damn these potholes. Why don’t they fill them in? It’s a wonder anything gets fixed in this place. Boy, will this rain ever let up? These squeaking windshield wipers drive me crazy. I never remember to get new ones unless it’s raining. I’ll buy some tomorrow. Maybe the radio will drown out the squeaking. Anything good on? Nope. Wow, look at this fog. I’ll be glad to get home. What a night! Oh shit, here comes one of those tractor trailers. When he passes, it will be a tidal wave. Brace yourself, here he comes. What the hell are you doing? Oh God, he’s cutting me off. Doesn’t he see me? Oh God, I’m going to die. Okay, okay, don’t panic. Remember, pump the brakes, pump the brakes. Shit! I’m going to hit the guard rail. Please God! I might have said at times I wanted to die, but I was having a bad day. Really. I didn’t mean it. I’m not sure if you exist or not. But if you do, can you give me a break? Is this what it all comes to? Is this why I struggled to get an education and make something of myself? So I could get squashed on the highway by a Teamster with an attitude. My poor parents. What will they do? It’s a good thing I have insurance now. I will never do anything important. I will never contribute anything significant to the human race. I will never know what the point of it all was. I’ll never see him again. Well, I guess this is it. Oh damn, oh damn, dammitt!!....
Wow, that was a close one.
