I was at Missy's house, and she was sitting on a couch looking out a window. I asked her if it was okay if she wrote her portion of the check out to me, then I wrote out the check for the whole amount. She started shaking her head, "no-no-no-no". Then her dad was there and said, "not a chance! It always F***’s things up if you do it that way.”

Then I was driving to my landlord’s office in a little black KIA. I had my mom next to me, and my friend Steven in the backseat. We were talking about something (that sounded like bees buzzing) and it started to rain. 

I looked at the road and said “Hold on everyone, here we go!” I lifted my hands from the wheel and the car started sliding to the right. I felt the car rolling, and remember FEELING the seatbelt keeping me in the seat. 

I started calling to my mom to make sure she was okay, then saying “now, if only Steve is okay.” He popped his head up from behind a snow covered ditch and said, “I’m fine” he came over to us and I was pissed because I’d totaled my new car. I looked at it, picked it up, and flipped it over. I remember thinking it was as light as a soda can. The roof had caved in, so it looked like it had been through a car compactor. 

All of a sudden, my landlord was there demanding his rent. I told him “I just got in a friggin’ car accident and all you care about is money?” I started throwing things around.

Steve was trying to get me to calm down but I keep throwing things out of the car. Next thing I remember I am in an office trying to program a website, but it keeps coming up with a “404 WOW” error and everyone is emailing me and asking what a 404 WOW error is. 

I screamed at them that if I knew they wouldn’t be seeing it. Then Sheryl called to tell me something. When I answered the phone I woke up.
