EPIC Epicness

5 a.m.

Sunday November 1, 2009

the loudest crash i have ever heard

from outside.

Chantal & I immediately sit up and look at each other

(keep in mind..

we had just finished The Grudge a few hours before

and were functioning on about 7 hours of sleep in the past 36 hours)

we were scared to look out our window

let alone open our door to see what happened

i thought someone had broken into our house

or that there was an accident on Kamehameha Hwy..

(we live right off one of the most dangerous highways in Hawaii

..people die on it like every day.)

I looked out my window and all i could see what a white car parked

across the street

so we went together haha.. and opened our door

we went to look off the balcony..

but there was nothing on the street..

so we were just like oh.....

then we saw it....

a man without a driver's license

or insurance

fell asleep while he was driving

his car swerved and almost hit that white car i saw

there's a telephone pole about 5 feet away from the brick wall

... the guy and somehow managed to go in-between the pole

and wedge his car (completely smashing the driver's side)

in between Carly's car and the brick wall.

He was SOO lucky to be alive...

and we're so lucky there's a brick wall outside our house..

or he probably would have taken out one of the beams that holds our house up.

The loud crash was

the sheets of glass that are randomly on the grass

on the other side of the brick wall

when his car hit the bricks it made a hole in the wall

and the bricks shattered the giant sheets of glass

and that's what woke us up..

The guy wasn't drunk

it was 5 a.m. after Halloween and we think he was just on his way home..

anyway we had to go wake up Carly

(Erin had just gotten home from town

about 30 min. before.. so she heard the crash

but no one else in the studio woke up

so she just kept sleeping)

We stayed outside with her until the police came

and they filed a report

and we went back to bed..

We were just thinking..

what if that guy hadn't have been so lucky

what if he'd died right outside our house

from hitting the pole head on

or Carly's car..

or that other white car..

or if that wall hadn't been there...

Everyone who reads this..

just know that i love you

because we never know what life will throw at us

it was a crazy crazy weekend.
