Guess you'd better slow that Mustang down

Irony time.
I headed out the door to work, after telling Rachel that I wanted to leave early on account of the rain turning people into unsafe drivers, and telling September to drive safely because of the newly falling snow.
So as soon as I turned out of the driveway, I rearended a Geo Metro.
Irony.
Dunno yet how much damage I did to the other car. My chest hurts from the seatbelt, but other than that I appear to be fine. The guy at the body shop says he can probably make Nauti streetworthy again for about $500.
I am so tired.

Did the Metro have their lights on? And if they did not and if you were on the street, did you call the cops?

There's a new law which says "wipers on, lights on", and if the Metro didn't have their lights on, then it might be at fault, which would make a difference for insurance purposes. But if you didn't get the police involved, that becomes moot.

(I nearly got taken out by a vintage car without its lights on this morning as I tried to pull away from the curb).

Sorry about the accident. *sigh*

It was parked. And empty.
I don't think I'm going to be able to sell anybody on the idea that it was her fault. Alas.

Oops. I think that'd be a no, yeah. d'oh. :/

Eep? What'd the cats do?

It's apparently close enough to feeding time that they're feeling affectionate. And not in the nice 'why not snuggle with the stressed flatmate' way. More in the 'hey. Hey. HEY. HEY! HEY HEY HEY! HEYYYYYYY!!' kind of way.

Erk. Sorry to hear about your collision. Glad it wasn't worse, though!

Suck. I am sorry sweetie

That's seriously suckful. Here's hoping the damage to the other is minimal, and to no more driving woes.

oh, puppy. So sorry. ****HUGS****
