Saved By a Cup of Coffee

It’s a chilly December morning, and I can’t help but be reminded of an accident I had a while back. Thankfully, I was saved from that accident by a cup of coffee. Ok, I understand that may be confusing and I need to fill in the pieces. Yeah, I’ll share more details.
So, about 15 years ago, I had an accident. I remember it, because I didn’t have a cell phone with me. And yeah, the accident was my fault. Yep, it was my fault. I was cruising to work early one morning, trying to time the lights going through downtown Omaha. No big deal, right? As I timed the lights and hit them green and boom, boom, boom. Well, I jumped one light a little too early and the only other car out on the road coming through the cross street hit the front of my car, and I swerved.
