Shoujo Phoenix A little past 11:30 last night, we heard a big BOOOOM outside. It wasn't anything like a car backfiring or even a gunshot. It sounded like an explosion. Then we saw a helicopter circling not too far from here.
I woke up at 5:30am and heard a hoard of helicopters in the air over there. So I turned on the news until I could find what it was. Apparently, someone got on the freeway the wrong way and was driving East on the West-bound side. He ran head-on into a semi truck...and like, two other cars were involved and blew up somehow. The only fatality was the guy driving the wrong way. But wtf...drunk maybe?
http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/story?section=resources/traffic&id=6029469 That reminds me of something that happened out this way several years ago. I think I might have still been in high school, or recently graduated, when this drunk got onto the highway, going the wrong way, and derailed a tractor-trailer. Now, this story has an extra kick to it, since this tractor-trailer was also carrying uranium dioxide at the time. http://tinyurl.com/2oj4wuThis is actually a link to a section of a book about training people on how to deal with emergencies involving hazardous materials, but it specifically mentions the accident.

Crazy!You know, Shouj, that headshot of you with the slicked-down grey hair from your sig looks an awful lot like Craft Lawrence, the main character of Wolf and Spice. All it would need is a bit of chin hair and a smile.

Crazy!You're telling me. The city practically shut down, since Springfield's City Hall is down in the same area as where the accident happened. All the major highways in the area were closed down. And people were freaking out. It was all we heard about for weeks.

You're right o_oYou should check it out. They're up to about episode 11 out of 12-13 and the show is awesome so far. I think the fact that the whole thing started as a set of light novels kinda works in its favor as far as plot and character development go. What is really nice about the show is that despite being set in the late middle ages/right before the renaissance, there has been next to no warfare.

Ugh...I'm a little upset. You know that money they're giving out in May? Well...I'm not getting anything. After reading what I got in the mail today (my mom got one too), I read that if someone claims you you don't qualify. That's a bunch of BS if you ask me, but what the ******** ever. I just need a ******** second job and I hate it. mad

iBarty Sleepy Bart was sleepy.... I finally woke up at 12 something but didn't get out of bed until after 1pm. I was up late talking to Joasis again (two hours and forty-five minutes...hahaha), and then this morning Pi texted me at like..eight something (I left my phone on in case my mom called). I'm surprised I lasted as long as I did talking to her for a bit before giving up and just going back to bed. sweatdrop Pfft. It was 9am my time! scream
