sheesh

so, nov 8th i am driving down the road...minding my own...need gas. and coffee..even though most people are still in bed, i use my turn signal, slow down and am midway into the turn when...KA(expletive deleted)boom...some person rams me at 30+mph. again expletives deleted...five lanes of not a person on the road and she hits me?
great way to start the day...i find my phone...did you know when you live in a car and you get in an accident...nothing is where you left it?...so as i search for the phone...varooom...the person drives off in a pissie fit... i find the phone...call the police...talking to them when varooom...here comes the same car...now running down the wrong way...one wheel on the sidewalk, aiming at me...now comes the screaming...."you're in my way" is about all i can post...the rest was profanity...

so this is a reallly great day huh? the cops finally show up...they can't stop laughing that this obese fool won't shut up...but they let her go with a ticket for failure to control...no comments about her leaving the scene to hide her meth...(found that out from a friend of hers, aren't small towns great?)...
NO FN INSURANCE...was her mommies car...didn't cover her...

now two months later...AAA keeps harassing me by phone and email...why am i so difficult to contact? why did you turn there...why why why....yes we will cover the damage...but you this and you that...even though i have the phone message stating she wasn't covered...

i don't need prayers or money...just someone tell me what a nice place this must have been before i was born...

Gringo, glad you weren't hurt.
Really sounds like a horrible way to start off any day, I hope everything can be figured out at no cost to you.
As far as the world being a better place without you, I highly doubt it. I know our ''luck'' doesn't always go the way we want it too, but I'll be praying for brighter days in your future.

What were you driving?

[gringo]

a 98 ford escort...POS now...she hit directly on the tail pipe. now the car won't run uphill...visual damage is at 1100 by today's estimate at the body shop...
damage to the car aside..the blow knocked me stupid...an i didn't have much to loose on that end.

Gringo,
I admire the way you weave a story!
I'm glad you weren't badly injured.
And a Ford Escort - well no great loss to the world there
just kiddin, buddy. Take a hacksaw and cut the end off that tailpipe, and pocket the repair check!

thanks for your prayers ranger

an one less escort in the world is no loss...
