Those are the sounds of my horn as the guy in front of me puts his car in reverse and guns himself into me. I’m sitting there behind this truck, waiting for him to get across the highway when I see this lady zipping along the highway and the truck starts to cross then she last minute decided to turn, no turn signal. The guy almost hits her, stops his car mid-highway and then throws his car in reverse, doesn’t look in his rearview mirror, oblivious to the fact that I’m sitting behind him, and slams his car into me. He immediately got out to see if I was ok and started apologizing. He was ticked at the lady and upset that he just hit me. I was upset to say the least but calm, despite shaking a bit. My car doesn’t look bad off, it seems the license plate holder took the worst of the damage with some minor damage to my front end, grill and lower part of my car. We exchanged all our info and he seemed to be a very nice guy, despite everything. (originally, I had called in to the police to make sure we didn’t need them to come out). My car is a lease and we have 1 year left before we get me the new mom-mobile so I really do not want any damage done because otherwise we owe money at the end of lease. (we have done great on miles so I won’t be owing on that at least) At least this guys insurance will have to pay for the repairs but still, it stinks! I was just relieved that it was a minor thing and Braysen wasn’t in the car with me.

This all happened after a long morning at work. My boss is on vacation both Thurs. and Friday of this week so I have come in at 8am both days, no biggy! On Tuesday & Thursday’s I have Yoga (surprisingly, this is even for college credit) so typically I leave at Noon to head over for that. Yesterday, I was supposed to have my work-study student in at noon but as noon approached, no student. 12:15 rolls around, no student! I was ticked. We did have another person coming in at 1:00 that is helping out for the summer so I wasn’t worried I’d be stuck here all day but I was ticked at this chic. She has been so unreliable; actually that’s an understatement.

Lots of things are going on as usual but I’ll spare the ramblings until another posting
