"I wanna feel the car crash ..."

I downloaded the Car Crash (Matt Nathanson) mp3, and I've been enjoying it a for the past couple weeks. Coincidentally, I have been involved in 3 car crashes in the last two weeks.

Today, I drove my rental car into some lady's Subaru at a stop sign while driving through the suburbs of Denver with my boss. I was in a real good mood right before it happened, and then while it happened, and after it happened as well.

It was a very avoidable collision: I saw her stopped and had more than enough time to react, but I just kinda slightly applied the brakes until receiving an equal and opposite reaction from her rear bumper. I can't explain why I didn't try stop harder, since I could have.

Anywaay, we got out of our cars and I was kinda still smiling. She was not. "What the hell was that?" She needs to chill, I think to myself. I filled her in on my opinion that the brakes on my rental are not as sensitive as the ones on my car at home. She was disturbed by my lack of interest in the gravity of the situation, but she couldn't find any damage on her dirty Outlander, so we parted ways semi-peacefully. I'm thinking the song is getting to my head and I need to delete it from my iTunes before it affects my insurance premiums.
