So I'm driving home from work ...

[apocalypsos]

In front of me in the passing lane, a truck piled high with lumber. On my right, a Sunoco tanker.

And after a good thirty seconds of being in this position, I say to the empty car, "Oh, my God, I am one snapped cable away from being a Final Destination sequel, aren't I?"

Heh. I've had that thought on the road more than once.

I've always had a fear of driving straight into the wall whenever I use one of Manhattan's tunnels. My fear was slightly realized recently, when I felt the tires of my rental moving truck skid onto the curb in the Midtown tunnel going towards Queens. My heart finally stopped racing once I reached my apartment in Queens.

Dangit. Now I have the So Many Dynamos song "Saturday Night, Sunday Morning" stuck in my head.

"...and pray that every single metal beam on every truck is tied down securely enough: tonight, they become projectiles, freeway missiles, breaking windshields..."

This is both hilarious and kind of scary.

I've never even seen the damn movie and I'm skittish about driving behind lumber trucks. T_T

I think that ALL THE TIME. Driving behind a pickup with a ladder tied on top? Oh yeah. Tempting fate.
Those movies are a very bad influence on one's paranoia!
Hee. So funny when you realize weird things like this aren't just you.
