Unintentionally Reckless (October 2016)

Today I had a job interview in downtown Detroit - a 90+ minute drive - and I forgot my morning meds.  I had to leave the house at 9:00 am to be certain I was there on time for the 11:00 appointment. 

For whatever reason, I was really tired so I kept closing my eyes for what I thought was just a long blink. I can't tell you the number of times I opened my eyes to see I was about to rear-ended a car or sideswipe a semi or drive off the road and into the median wall (thank God for rumble strips) or drifting back and forth between lanes.

The same thing started to happen on the ride home so I pulled off an exit and into a carpool lot and slept for about 30 minutes.
