Hopefully a Better Day!
Today has to be a better day than yesterday was! On my way into work yesterday some a-hole {a title well deserved} thought it would be a great idea to run a light and hit me in the middle of an intersection. And to make it worse.....this royal a-hole also thought it would be a stellar idea to run!
So there I was, sitting in my car going hysterical {an understatement} waiting on the cops to arrive! The worst part was sitting there knowing that I was screwed because some classless smuck didn't have the decency to stop {probably because he didn't have insurance}.
Don't worry! There is still some hope in humanity. A guy in the truck behind me witnessed the entire incident and attempted to follow the a-hole but wasn't able to get a license plate number. He came back and gave me all of his information and said that he was willing to be a witness. Thank you God for good people on this planet!
Unfortunately, my insurance company doesn't fall under that category. They didn't care that there was a witness. I am still out my $500 deductible because I didn't get a name or a license plate number. I argued with the claims department, insisting that they were condoning chasing a hit and run driver down, but my arguing did not help. EFF me!!!!
So now my poor baby, the Tahoe {aka- The Big Gray Bus}, needs some work done on the bumper and front grill. Oh and Hubs has informed me that I will never be allowed to own anything other than a SUV after the accident. The only upside to the day- after I was done calling the insurance company and getting an estimate done I threw on a pair of sweatpants and lounged on the couch the rest of the day!

This happened to me once too and I was traumatized and crying to the cops. They also couldn't do anything because I didn't get the plate number. It was a middle aged woman and I remember her pulling over and jetting and she totaled the car (I had to pay out of pocket too).
Some people are disgusting but you're ok and that's the main part.
*Hugs*
I hope you are feeling alright today... and that it's a MUCH better day!
