I seem to have had one of those days when "I should 'a stood in bed"
Came home for lunch today, instead of the local "fast food grease pit"
and when leaving, I backed out of the driveway and turned in front of the
next door neighbors. I stopped for a minute to fasten my seat belt
(aside: why does the seat belt latch ALWAYS fall down between the seat
and tunnel?). I sensed something moving on my immediate left and turned
to observe the tail gate of the guy two doors up about 2 feet away from
my face and coming at a fair clip.
As you've no doubt guessed, I'm gonna have to replace the drivers door
and L front fender. Fortunatly, that's all. But to add insult to
injury, it took the bloody cop a bit over an hour to come make the
report. Oh, the other guy got charged with "improper backing", so the
body shop bill comes out of his pocket!
So now I'm an hour and a half late getting back to work.
I walk in and find that not one but two local gov't inspectors (fire and
health) have decided to do their monthly tour on the same day.
God, I hate Wednesday's!!!!!!
Thanks for the collective Shoulder To Cry On
