Sunny 9 for 2005 August 24

Seems like when one thing goes wrong then tons of things start following lead. I can't complain, my life is great. It has just been a challenging week. The cherry on top happened today as some guy backed his truck up (and over) my hood. To make matters worse, he has no insurance. Nice. And he wanted me not to call the police because he has 2 warrents out for his arrest, "no policia, muchas problemas para mi".

I did call the police right away, before I even got out of the car half expecting the guy to drive off. Luckily he stuck around, but a whole lot of good that did me. I am still stuck with a broken car, $500 deductible out of my pocket, and this going on my permanent record. Did you catch that part? My PERMANENT RECORD! Argh! And just when Aaron's accident was getting off our record this month and I was all excited our auto insurance was going down $50 per month and we even got to switch back to the better USAA policy. But no. Not now since my record is tarnished, the corporate insurance angency has to make someone pay.

Isn't this why I pay insurance so when accidents happen, it's covered? Nope, they take more money away from you so now they will punish me for some idiot backing up into me and I not only have to pay up front deductible, they add salt to the wound by making me pay more money for three years following. How is this fair? Stupid uninsured driver's. I hope he gets sent back to Mexico.
