Nearly 3 weeks ago I was on my merry way to work when a guy pulled out of a parking lot to the right of my car right into incoming traffic. He hit the passenger side of my car - more specifically, he dented the cast aluminum wheel, poked a big ole hole in the brand new tire, and damaged the steering so badly the front wheels pointed in different directions. His car? Scratches and dents on the bumper.
No one was hurt, and the police didn't file a report, calling it a minor accident. However, he told his insurance company that he wasn't at fault so it took them two full weeks to look at pictures, hear our stories, and then finally decide that yes, he was indeed at fault, and they accepted the claim. So we finally started repairs on my car last Wednesday and got a rental for me then. Sharing Hubbie's truck for two weeks was not super fun.
I cleaned off my desk three months ago and it was beautiful. Then I cleaned off the bookshelf in the office to get rid of the nasty old thing and put a better one in. Now my desk is covered in crap again. Whups.
