Me too, Girl_on_Fire!

It was Superbowl weekend and I was driving down the FL Turnpike to see my girlfriend when I got the feeling to just turn back and go home. Call her and say I'm just too tired. I'd worked all day and then started out on the 3 plus hour drive but I was a little more than halfway there and I'd just made a pit stop at a rest area. Even though it was pitch black and raining, I ignored that feeling. So, I pushed on. Less than 10 minutes later, I hydroplaned going down a hill and slammed into the back of a Park Avenue. My car....the first new car I'd ever had...was totalled and repeatedly kept catching on fire, no matter how many times folks helped me put it out. It began what was one Helluva miserable weekend that, when I tell people everything that happened, they just shake their heads and I can see the pity in their eyes. Bad, bad weekend. The cherry to this little sundae of misery? She broke up with me a few hours later.

Edited to add: I also wound up with medical issues from this that still crop up from time to time.
