It HAD To Happen

Attitude With Legs, aka my Girl Child was on her way to work about 45 minutes ago. She grew up driving in this crap (about 1" of snow covered by about 1/2 " of ice) and she has an all-wheel drive SUV. OK so far? Good.

One of the local Prince Charmings decided to pull out in front of her without even looking, leaving her the choice of either (a) broad-siding the prick or (b) standing on the WIDE pedal and testing out the ABS.

She, for reasons not known to me, chose Option B and when the brakes kicked in she ended up in a f'kin ditch. No harm, no foul - she's unhurt and so's the car. A samaritan with a tow rope got her out and home she wended, with an adrenaline rush you wouldn't f'kin BELIEVE!

Of course, she was too busy going into evasive manoevers to get this asshole's license plate. But he'll be around again.

I hope.
