I was at the shore today!

And I told one of my friends that I was going to finish the last panel for our manga on the way down, but turns out that I was the person with the map, so... that didn't happen.

So, I'm going to go finish it asap.

Ready for a depressing story?
Here we go~
So, we were driving home, and still on the highway (we were a good... 30 minutes away from our house), and all of the sudden, the opposite lane is like, completely empty. Then we saw a cop, with standing with a lady who had this blue SUV pulled over on the far left side of the road. I mean, at least I thought that the cop pulled her over for speeding... until we saw a second car. So, second thought: Oh, minor accident.; Nope, that wasn't true either. As we passed this sand-gold minivan, we noticed that there was a MAJOR dent in the side of it. My dad made the comment that the car must have flipped; there was no one inside, so I'm assuming that they were taken to the hospital or something already.
And then we saw it.
The real damage.
A few feet in front of that minivan, there was a car laying on its roof. I had my iPod in playing really creepy music, so I had to pause it... and I couldn't help myself from gasping. There was glass ALL OVER the road, bits and pieces of the tires... and cops all over the place. My mom had to catch her breath (she lost her boyfriend MANY years ago to a car accident), and my dad quietly said, "Yup... someone's dead..." and sure enough, he was right. My mom told all of us to look away, but you know, curiosity killed the cat, and I wanted to see how much I could take it.
The cops were standing over this like... mound. The mound was covered in a yellow jacket or blanket... so...

... (shudders)

I hate passing car accidents DX I should be like, numbed out to it by now because of those stupid Texting and Driving videos/commercials on YouTube (they're not really stupid, just really graphic).

Now we all know why I hate driving on highways, texting/handling a cellphone while driving, and speeding.
Now we all know why I am like, always following the speedlimit, or finding an alternative to driving, because there are freakin' idiots on the road DX

My message to my friends here watching and reading this post: PLEASE please be safe with what you do. Don't do anything stupid that can risk your life or others around you.

I'm kinda freaked out that it happened closer to home, so I'm really hoping that my friends here in CT say something on my status to let me know that they're alright....

Anyways, on a slightly more depressing note (yay XD), my Tales of the Abyss is dead. I don't know what happened to it, so I'm just going to buy a new one. I'm probably going to bring it into the game store to see what they have to say, and still order the one from the other store (which is 30 minutes away from my house, and involves going on the highway).
And my older brother wants to buy Grandia 3 (we borrowed it from a friend a few years back, and now we want to play it again xD), but that's a good... 27 miles away from home, so we're just seeing if it can be brought over to the store that's like... just a couple of minutes away from our house.


SO YEAH.

ANYWAYS.

Going to have my comics updated by the end of tonight, so... if you're reading them, keep your eyes peeled!
