Eeesh, that does sound like a pretty bad start to the new year. I can understand the frustration, what, going from traveling through the snow, to a flooded kitchen, to just being outright ill to a car accident, however minor. It's just not something you really appreciate happening, especially when life is so hectic. I don't think the accident was really too much your fault, and my mother's done the same thing quite a few times herself, so the main thing is that you're okay. :D <3

But you're already a fabulous friend and a wonderful person, so I don't really see the point of those bits of the journal. SILLY SI.
