i'm in mom's old bedroom in ashland, with 2 other people. one of them (some girl) has a cut or something, and we're trying to figure out how to use this crazy complicated medical machine. she's sitting on a stool and is about to put her finger in it for it to repair it or something. there's also a tube that dispenses some sort of anesthetic. i ask her if she wants a chair but she rudely says she's fine. i ignore the fact that she's being a bitch and explain that the chair has a back and is pbly more comfortable, etc.
the power starts to flicker, and i'm worried the machine won't work right. i'm trying to think what might be causing it when we hear a loud crash downstairs.
i run down into the living room but don't see any obvious sign that someone crashed into the house. i go out front and see mom's car, all smashed up. i run over and shout "are you guys okay" to mom the guy she's with (bob?). they're slowly getting out of the car and say "we're fine, someone crashed into us". that sucks! i say, but they continue "but we hit somebody, and they're losing a leg."
i'm shocked.
...
i'm driving, and preoccupied about the possibility of maiming someone by not paying attention.
