October 10th

On October 10^th, I was going to leave early for work. I had a feeling I was going to be late. But then I felt the prompting to not leave yet, wait until 7:00 pm when I normally leave. I at first shrugged it off and started grabbing my things. Then it repeated but stronger. I've learned that ignoring promptings is a bad idea, I am just a little slow sometimes, I hung my stuff back up and played with my cats for the remaining time. I left on time at 7. Traffic was moving fine, then  came to a complete halt. I read on the reader board above that an accident was blocking all lanes of traffic. I called NWSS and let them know that I'd be late. As we slowly crawled up there, I saw the accident. 2 cars completely totaled, glass everywhere, one car almost split in half. It was obviously a fatal car crash. I started crying as it hit me hard that if I had left when I was going to, that would have been me.
