So Much for the Fun Roadtrip

The weather was kind of shitty here today so we decided to wait and go to both the gorge and the farm tomorrow. Today we went to Ithaca and wandered around for a while, which was nice I guess. Then, as we were on our way way back to our hotel, we hit a deer on the interstate. It was fucking horrible. None of us saw her coming; she just flew at the car and slammed into the front corner on the drivers side. Ironically enough we had just been talking a few minutes before that about how there are always so many animals killed in the road and how so many people just don't try hard enough to avoid them. It really is unavoidable sometimes though. Anyway, now an innocent deer is dead, our car is fucked, we are stuck in the room instead of getting to go to the gorge or the farm, my aunt and cousin have to drive up from WV to pick us up, then we will have to come back later to pick up the car once they get it fixed. I'm telling you guys, I really am cursed. I am fairly certain that, had I stayed home, my mom and sister would have had a great time. Plus the poor deer would probably still be alive.

  1. It's not your fault! Really! I am glad you guys are OK, although I am very sorry for the poor deer. Some things just can't be avoided; it's not your fault.

    1. Thank you. Yeah, we're fine. I feel really bad about her, she was obviously a really young one too. It's just remarkable how bad shit seems to follow me around. I was just expecting bad weather though, not this.

    2. Yeah. You can't really anticipate something like that.
