Ever just know by waking up...
That it's going to be one of those days?
Besides the mad dash last night to clean the apartment for the new "semi-annual" inspections, I didn't get to bed until 1am. Up at 5:30am for another day at work.
Got the secret santa gift wrapped, did the christmas cards for the other admins and off I went. Greg calls as he leaves work, typical routine for us now, when the phone rings 10 minutes later and it's him again. Seems he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. On the transition road to the freeway, a BMW going 50 mph hit a stopped van, which hit Greg's stopped car, which caused him to go into his friend Jimmy's stopped truck. (See the trend yet?) Obviously the driver's mind was elsewhere. Her car was totaled, the van had some minor damage, our car has some minor damage and Jimmy's truck seems to be okay minus the tailgate being pushed in a bit. (Very lucky Jimmy's an easy-going guy and realizes it was none of their faults, after all they were all stopped.)
Now the fun part begins having to deal with the insurance company. I'm not to worried, they'll all go after the driver of the BMW. We will just be without one car for a bit while the Matrix goes into the shop to get fixed. Guess I should consider myself lucky the shop guy is a friend of my boss Don, one of our clients and Don happens to be the silent second partner of the business. I think we'll be in very good hands.
Now I just wish I could crawl back into bed and start the day over.
