Angry Just joined the "I crashed my s2k" club

I just crashed my s2k 55mph into a tree. Ever since coming back from SF, I thought my clutch felt a little weird- like the catch was way too low or something.. Ironically, I was actually on my way to GoodYear to have them check it out before I hit the gym but unfortunately I didn't quite make it. Basically, I got locked out of gear, couldn't shift into 4th and looked down for a split second when I hit a curb, fish tailed, lost control, and ran into a tree. I was driving topdown and wasn't wearing a seatbelt and as a result, ended up being ejected 50ft onto the hardest asphalt of my life. I guess the adrenaline gave me enough energy to get up and walk over to the center median where I collapsed and was stabilized by some heroic bystander marines. I got rushed to trauma and ended up with the gnarliest scraps all over my excruciatingly sore body, a thick lesion on my upper thigh that was sutured up, and had a cat scan showing only 2 fractured ribs on my dorsal side. Thank god my conceited face is fine though- only an bruised abrasion on my cheek and cut up lip. Apparently, I could have died because I'M A DUMB BITCH AND A COMPLETE IDIOT!!! I'm sharing this because I WANT EVERYONE TO PLEASE WEAR YOUR SEATBELT!! I'm very lucky and I don't believe in god, but if there was one, he must really Really like me. That or I must have some kind of purpose or am meant to do some kind of good in this world. Well, that's it. RIP s2K, you gave me the happiest 3 years of my stupid life.
