Super Crazy Car Accident Night
So yesterday was just not a good day for me for many reasons but that was all supposed to change and me and (e:beast) were going to go out and meet up with some of her coworkers at some bar on Pearl Street. Well we are stopped on Elmwood near Spot becuase some car is turning when all of a sudden our car gets slammed from behind. We pull over thinking this is prolly just a normal fender bender situation but oh were we wrong. So we get out and so does the two people in the car bheind us but the third car which hit the second car which hit us is still in the street and the lady is in it. It is leaking some kind of fluid so we all tell her to turn it off before she explodes or something. On our way walking from where we pulled over our car to where th eother car was some peple on the street asked us for money but we said no at the time. Anywho so the saga continues..

A bystander pulls over and helps push the lady's car into the Wilson Farms parking lot at whihc point from talking to her we realize she is completely wasted and I mean trashed. Like completely. When they opened her door like four beer bottles fell out kinda trashed. So then the people that asked us for money say they saw the whole thing and will be witnesses or whatever.

Meanwhile the durnk driver is now trying to get back into her car and drive away. SO the guy from the car behind us stops her and makes her get out of her car. She tries this again and insists she is just trying to move her car but we tell her she isn't allowe dbecasuse a)she might blow up and b) she will prolly kill someone even juts trying to move it into a space or c) she will drive away. Eventually after lots of arguing one of the guys took the keys our of her hand and gave them to me to hold onto.

Oh wait I almost forgot we had called the police right after the accident. As did Wilson Farms and the people in the other car. It has been at least a half hour at ihs point while a few cops had driven by but said they couldn't' sto pcuz it wasn't their call. While I fully know that there are prolly at leas t6 cop cars in the Mobil lot on Lexington the whole time. ANywho, we call the cops again cuz the girl is strating to get angry and mean and being like "you can't take my keys' . Who are you. This is scary that you have my keys" and we were like no what is scary is that you slammed into two cars cuz you are so drunk. So I go to plug my phone in my car to charge cuz the battery was almost dead and when I get out I see her walking down elmwood like pas tthe sushi place so I chase after her and call the other people over and we finally get her to come back. She insists she is on the phone with her mom, who told her we were being ridicuolous and she should just walk away. HELLO!! NO! YOU JUST SLAMMED INTO OUR CAR CUZ YOU ARE FREAKIN' WASTED!

So after prolly an hour or so the police finally arrived. Oh yeah and in the meantime the wtinesses are asking Teres for money and she says something like , we'll get you back don't worry kinda thing but is not gonna give them money in front of the police because how shady does that look.

So the cops get there and act as if the front two cars are conspiring in some how and thinkins we were drinking too. Which I was not at all and the girl behind me did not seem like she had been either. But the bystander witness was drunk and reaked of alcohol and I thknk that is what the police smelled.

Anyway, drunk girl then insists she wasn't driving and she was just walking when the accident happens though she agrees that it is her car. Yes she was that wasted. Mind you this is after I spent the last 20 minutes going over with her again and again which cars she hit. Well according to her "supposedly hit". Even though every thirty seconds she would ask again and forget that I already told her about it. Anywho so the cops gets everyone informtaino. Oh and three ocp cars, two ambulances and a fire truck respond...mind you tihs is like 45 minutes or so after we called, so had we needed an ambulance (which we said we didn't) it would have been a little late at that time.

Well anyway we go to leave and the bystander is asking us for money and Ters is saying she will get him back but now now cuz it looks shady. And after he berates us for being terrible people we drive away. But seriulsy it would looks so shady. We will have his address form the police report so we are going to send him like a gift certificate to a store or something cuz he said he needed baby diapers and we want him to but that though instead of more alcohol.

Anywho the night gets stranger. We decide "eh waht the f" we might as well still go out as it was only lykke 1230ish at this point and we were fine. So we go to Frizzy's where I saw some people I went to college and some people I went to highschool with which was fun. We also saw the poeple from the front of (e:pmt)'s old apt whihc was fun. Anywho the weird part is the kid from the accideent from the car behind us was there. And he said the girl got taken away in handcuffs, she is so done...we might have to go to court the cops said. Anyway, he said the really weird part is that the girl he was with has a boyfriend who ended up showing up at the accident and she was with this other guy so that as bad....

TERES MADE OUT WITH HIM....oh what a night

I feel like tihs story doesn't come off as sounding as crazy as it really was in text form so next time I see you guys I will tell you about it. Cuz it was insane

i have to hear this story in person, its so classic "mike".
metalpeter - 10/21/06 16:17
That does sound a little crazzy, at least everyone was ok.
mk - 10/21/06 13:20
Mike that is really crazy and I'm glad you are okay. My favorite part about your journals is that you write like you talk, and if you forget a part you don't go back and insert it into the story, you put it after and say "Oh wait I forgot." I love it.

Cell Phones and Tree Fallings
It seems this little storm made me realize how reliant everyone is on cell phones. Everyone I know who doesn't have power is dying b/c there cell phone power has died and so they have no way of reaching anyone. Plus so many people's cell phones are out of whack. Like mine never rings but then I will get like 8 voicemails at once but can't listen to them and my battery dies about every hour cuz it is searching for service and keeps going into digital roam. Same thing is happening to many of my friends which has caused many confusing conversations/situations today. The only place i really had good reception was outside Jill's house for a little bit earlier and in marykate's window sill for like a little while tihs afternoon.

Weird note: did anyone else notice that there is trees down everyewhere but hardly any hit houses. At least here in Kenmore that seems to be the situation. I walked all over Kenmore and saw a tree down in front of like every house but none seemed to have hit any of the houses. It seems crazy. Is it the same everywhere?
chicoschica - 10/14/06 11:17
Yes!
We have the same situation here by parkside! I guess it's because the bulk of the weight was on the branches and so those came down right off of the trunk. In some cases, like the tree in front of our house, it split at the trunk - but we were lucky, it fell AWAY from the house (on to chico's car, but we managed to get it out from under before the snow got too deep Friday night).

While it is unlucky that the trees have been de-branched and otherwise mangled, at least people's homes are mostly intact, which is so very important...

Baby Joe Mesi/Snow
Today someone said I was just like Baby Joe Mesi the boxer. Sure it was a 7 year old but still, that's something. I guess lifting my 10 lb weights is paying off, haha. I had to pick my bosses kid up at the busstop today. It is weird that anyone could really pick the kid up. I could have been a stranger. It seems like in this day and age they would have osme other system. I guess he is 7 or 8. I guess you can fend for yourself by then? Needless to say I was freezing standing in the slushy snow for like a half hour waiting for the bus in a tshirt and spring jacket which is all I brouth to work since it was warm this morning. And then found out I didn't actually have to be there and could have waited at the house....ehh at least I got to leave Eckerd for about an hour....


I guess this is the most damage ever or something. That is what they said on the news. They think they will have to wait til tomrrow to see but it may be the costliest natural disaster in Buffalo history....and its only mid-October...great
