In a little more detail, here's what happened.
I was coming home from work at about 11 o'clock. It was dark, rainy and a hill -- so, naturally, my brakes utterly failed to work. Coming down the hill towards a light, I pressed them and got -- nothing.
I tried to steer between two cars and failed. I hit a car in the right rear corner with the center of my front bumper.
My boss was in the area; she was nice enough to give me a ride home. I ache, I have been aching, but I saw a doctor today and he says I'm just fine. My car is a total loss, unfortunately, which means a two-hour one-way trip by bus to get to work -- up at five, home at seven, for a nice fourteen hour day, and in bed by 11. I expect to go back to work Friday or Monday.
I'm doing okay physically, but I'm fighting a lot of depression, both because of this and other circumstances which are all piling on. I seem to be having a very hard time coping.
But I'm okay, I guess.
