well, I did need SOMETHING to spend all that min-wage crap on

[lauralh]

So, I'm pulling out of the road I live on and um, well, the memory is a little blurry but some guy hits me. It isn't even that bad on either side, so after we exchange numbers and insurance info, I get back in my car, drive around the block to make sure my car's ok.

It's not ok. It smells funny, and the steering is all fucked up. Any way I turn, it doesn't feel right. I don't know if it's the power steering or the front wheel drive that got fucked, but one or the other. I came home and called my boss and called my insurance and I want to die. Ugh.

update: insurance guy is actually coming over to look at my car.

also, this made me smile.

update2: rental insurance covers $20 a day. so I'm thinking "HELLO GEO METRO!"
Getting a tow truck over here shortly.

update3: they didn't have any geo metros. I'll switch out when they do. I got a Sentra.

Progressive is actually sending an agent to look at my car. Wild.

Wow... so those Progressive commercials aren't all hype... that kicks a moderate amount of ass. I may have to call them eventually.

Anyway, it probably just fucked up your alignment, but I'm glad you're okay n' stuff.

i got in a really mild accident last june. the other driver sued the shit out of my insurance company (Progressive) and ended up getting probably a new car and a year of free massage work. call your Samoan.

I'm totally fine, just emotionally damaged.

Ooh, that's the motherfucking droops. At least the insurance company isn't dragging its ass.

Another one!? Well, at least your good fortune in being ok after them continues. And it sounds like this one wasn't your fault! Get some money from that guy!!
