Sometimes Things Happen For A Reason

I overslept today.  I shut off the alarm and went right back to sleep. Yikes. I woke up at 6:00. Oh crap, there's no time to do anything but throw on my clothes, thank God I iron and get everything ready the night before, and fly out the door. There was a line of cars going down this narrow windy road I have to go down.  Double crap. I get to the bottom and there all sorts of lights flashing and I'm turned away.  Obviously BGE is doing their thing, again. Thriple crap, I now have to scoot ten miles out of my way and am an hour late.  Could this get any worse? 

As a matter of fact it could.  It wasn't BGE down at the base of the hill it was several ambulances, fire trucks, and police cars.  There was a multicar pile up, complete with several fatalities.  If I had gotten up on time, I probably would have been part of it. It makes me think, it does.
