I don’t usually make posts like this, but I have just awoken after arriving home and promptly passing out at 4 in the morning... it is 11:49 AM as I type.

As I said, I don’t usually make posts like this but I’ve never had a night go this hilariously badly. Let’s begin with, what should’ve been a heads up for what was to come, the first incident. This wasn’t that bad, but my driveway is simply so full of ice my truck couldn’t catch traction so I had to have a buddy a mile up the road give me a push out... like I said, not bad.

Incident number 2. I decided I wanted to get a new flannel (which I did, it’s green and I’m currently wearing it), so I went to the closest city around me (for reference I live in a village with >1000 people, closest city is 30 minutes away) to go shop at a Kohl’s for said flannel. It didn’t dawn on me until I was in the store that my keys weren’t on me (for reference I drive a pretty old pickup truck) and then realized while in the middle of said store that I had pressed the manual locks but didn’t grab then.

As I got back out to the parking lot and realized the true consequences of my mistakes, I called my girlfriend and asked her to bring a screwdriver to see if I could jimmy the lock. After many unsuccessful attempts with the crowbar to open the back sliding window, she pulled up with a screwdriver and I had a wrench so I used that to break the latch to the back sliding door and crawl in. (This all took about an hour)

Now cue incident number 3. After hanging out with her for a few hours I took a backroad home at around 1. As I took a left too sharp (my truck is super light, doesn’t take snow well cuz it’s 2 wheel drive) my truck proceeded to do a 360 around into the other lane and submerge into the ditch. Cue momentary freak out.

My luck was there momentarily when the first person I called, my buddy Dillon, picked up and said he’d be out in half an hour to pull me out. 1 hour later he shows up, we get the straps put on the axles and he hops in his truck to turn it on (he also drives an even older truck), and almost like it was a comedy movie, his truck died.

So after figuring out what was going on under the hood, he had it back alive in about half an hour and I was able to get out.

All said and done I didn’t get home until about 4 this morning and took the fattest sleep of all time moral of the story: stay inside and play DSGHQ games instead

Hope ur okay and recovered after all of this! Seems like you had a pretty eventful day lol
