My Heart Was Racin’
4 04 2008This morning it was very foggy, and I happened to be driving on Highway 30. Most of the time I could only see a couple hundred yards in front of me, so I was trying to be very cautious and was driving a little slower than I normally would. Occasionally the fog would break to where I could see further, but most of the time is was pretty thick.
I came up on one area, and a semi-truck, obviously growing impatient from waiting and stressed from the fog, decided to gun it and turn left from his lanes across the entire highway right in front of me. I hit my brakes and all the junk I have in the back of my Jeep slid up towards the front. This is one of the occasions where if there was a second’s difference I would probably be fishing in heaven right now instead of writing this post.
After I resumed my speed I realized there was a thumping in my chest. My heart was really racing.
