A sick feeling

Last night I drove by a huge accident scene at 44/Jefferson in front of McDonald’s.  Lots of ambulances, cop cars, road shut down, etc.  I thought to myself, “gee, that looks terrible.”

Fast forward to picking up the kids from school.  The older girls tell me a brother/sister pair, another 3rd grader and their mom were hit by a guy in a stolen car.  The mom, a good friend who delighted me on New Year’s Eve with Jilly’s cupcakes and champagne, remains in the ICU under observation.

Damn.
