What was wrong today? First I was having sex with Stacey again and it's even worse I don't know if I love her or it's just the 'friends with benefits'-part that got me today. Second I lost my keys and had to drive the whole way back to Stacey again to find them laying in her sofa. And third... there is this big truck quickly driving towards me!

I had lost my mind and was only thinking about me and Stacey that I accidentally took the wrong entrance of the highway. I was driving on the wrong side of the highway and there was a big truck of almost 12 meters long quickly coming up towards me! What did i have to do to prevent me from banging up against that big 12 tons-heavy-truck?

It was just 250 meters away from me and we were both driving around 90 km/h. It would just take 5 seconds before my body would be laying in 600 pieces underneath that big truck. 

4 seconds to go and nothing has changed. When will somebody come to rescue me?

3 seconds and it's just 150 meters with this truck still driving the same speed. When will this truck descend his speed?! Not that I had done anything at all, because what do you need to do in such a situation? I could not think under so much stress anymore.

2 seconds before we would collide. And then... I knew exactly what i had to do! I steered heavily to the left and was driving on the berm. The truck rushed along of me and i quickly descended my speed till i stopped. 

I was heavily breathing and I couldn't control myself. My whole body was shaking, from my toes till my head. Cars and trucks kept passing by, but I... was just sitting there in my car in the berm, with my car even in the wrong direction. How was I going to get my car changed from direction on this road. 

I waited for 2 minutes and was thinking what was best to do when suddenly there was just an interruption in the traffic and the nearest car was 600 meters ahead. This was my chance. I had to take it. I throttled my gear in it's 1 and quickly accelerated, pushed the gear in it's 2 turned my steering wheel around. While I was steering even throttled the gear in it's 3 and I pushed my accelerator like I never had before. I almost pushed it into the engine. Quickly i throttled to it's 4 and I was at the correct speed again. 

On my way home I wasn't betrayed by my own thoughts again and the route to my home went pretty smooth. Of course 'smooth' is a big word for such a situation. But I hadn't been driving on the wrong side of the road anymore. So at least that went good. When I got home I said hello to my dog and walked him. After having walked the dog I took the tomatoes and started cutting them. I putted some spaghetti in a big cooking pot and started boiling it. After all my cooking skills have never been really bad... 

I haven't heard anything bad about it from anyone and i could at least prepare some delicious eggs, anyone has always banqueted on my cup of tea: Spaghetti.

After dinner I was watching some tv-show which wasn't bothering me anymore. I was just thinking of Stacey. I couldn't stop thinking about her. She kept being on my mind. Finally I just fell asleep on the sofa. Maybe tomorrow I would know the answer to the question which was glued to my mind.
