Honestly YES!
So lets go back a couple days to Saturday....Bright and early in the morning BF and I get up go to breakfast and started off having a GREAT morning. Nothing like yummy steak and eggs followed by a large iced turbo coffee from DD!!! Great right
Well we were at Bfs brothesr house because he was getting cement poured for his garage that he is building. His gf (Miss) and I decided that we were going to run to the other end of town, literally a 5 minute drive, to get ice for the cooler for all the guys that were working. Well we get to the part where we are driving past the elementary school right to where 890 stops and you have to turn right or left onto 225. Well we were traveling on 225 going to the store, moseying right along doing about 25mph when the speed limit was 35. Some butthead turd mobile in a hatchback station wagon pulled out right in front of us. Literally 5 feet in front of us and both Miss and I got out the "OH" in the Oh s word part of the accident. Well we ended up t-boning the guy right into his passenger door. Took all the impact on the passenger side where I was sitting. SCARY!!!!!
Thank God her airbags deployed or both her and I would have been hurt really really bad. The guy we hit only had a cut on his elbow and some glass in his hair. But we smashed in his passenger side. Thank heavens we werent going the speed limit because it would have been a lot worse for him. Miss wasnt hurt that bad just has a bruise from the steering wheel. Me however being the bonehead that I am decided to not listen to all the "NEVER brace youself in an accident" advice, messed up my ankle, knee, I have bruise and cuts all over my right leg, a giant black bruise on my buttcheek on my left side, and burns (like road rash) on both my arms from the air bag, plus how it happened I dont know but my jiggle roll on my belly is bruised and battered not to mention extreme back and neck pain. OMG I am hurting still 2 days later, I feel like a beat up Rainbow Brite!!!!
Im working really hard on not being extremely MAD at the other driver because really!!! PAY ATTENTION I dont get why its so hard for people to look left then right then left again or even right first. It wasnt super bright and sunny so theres no blind spot excuse, the guy just wasnt paying attention. I am glad that noone was seriously hurt but still not exactly the way I wanted my Saturday morning to go. Luckily we didnt take my car because we would have been in big trouble, we took Miss' jeep cherokee which is a TANK only lost its bumper and smashed the bejeepers out of the passenger side, its missing the lights and everything and broke the air condenser thingie so it leaked frion (sp?) everywhere. Just a crappy crappy day! But again, atleast noone was seriously injured.
It may be small of me but atleast the other guy too accepted responsibility that it was his fault, if he wouldnt have we also had half the Line Mountain football team (they were parked at the elem. school) who witnessed the whole thing and told the state trooper that it wasnt our fault. But holy crap, his car got totaled, and because her jeep is a 97 and the air bags deployed her jeep is going to be totaled by the insurance company, so now she is on a car hunt to find a replacement. Crappy crappy crappy.....
Miss' boyfriend took pictures of both cars and Im going to have him forward me the pictures to my cell so I can post some of them but I just had to share how crappy my weekend was!!!
So rule of thumb!! If you are within 10-15 miles of your house WATCH out for those weirdo drivers who dont pay attention.....Accidents SUCK BIGTIME!!!!!!
