Dear Sugar--

I really messed up here and don't know where to turn, but I need to get this off my chest. The other night I was driving home from an evening out with friends and committed the unforgivable act of driving drunk. I have always preached against this, but I honestly felt, at the time, that I was OK to drive.

Well, of course that wasn't the case and I accidentally side swiped a parked car on my way home. Needless to say I was scared and horribly disgusted with myself, but to add insult to injury, I cowardly drove away without leaving a note. From what I could tell, I didn't do much, if any damage to the parked car and no one saw me. I drove immediately home, noticed all the damage to my car, but still didn't go back to the scene to leave my information.

I have not said anything to anyone out of utter embarrassment and fear of the repercussions. I already know that what I did is not forgivable, but I just needed to get that off my chest and finally breathe a sigh of relief.
