my truck!  this is what I've been dealing with since Friday, oh, around 12:30 in the afternoon, AT WORK!  yes I was at work when I was hit.

I was waiting to back out (going get lunch), I wasn't  even in the street or ON the street when this guy hit me.  our parking lot is on side of the street so when you back out, you have to look for cars coming down the street. all the cars are parked in a row so you have to back out a little to look for cars coming down the street and when I saw the truck that was coming I stopped to wait for it to pass.  well, when  it passed, it HIT me. to this day I STILL am trying to figure out HOW he hit me!  he had to be SO CLOSE to the curb when he passed in order to hit me.  well, the first thing out his mouth was, and I quote "I didn't see you and I had the right of way!"  to which I responded, "I wasn't even IN the street yet, so why were you SO CLOSE??!!"  he hit me on the side with the broken glass and pushed me into the white truck parked next to me which belonged to the girl who was in the car WITH me.  after that we called the cops and then that's when it hit me, "MY TRUCK IS EFFED UP!"  and I started crying while I called David to tell him about it.  it was still drive-able and the engineers at work clipped off my bumper cuz it was hanging and put it in the back and I drove to the dealer which is right up the road from where I work and I got a rental from enterprise while I was there.  so hopefully, they said they are going to start fixing it tomorrow. the rental I got is a minivan, I hate it!  I miss my truck.  

I forgot to tell you that we BOTH got a ticket…him for speeding and me  for "reasonable vigilence".  I asked the cop what that was for and he said cuz I "may" have been at fault too if I was over the curb sticking out in the street a little bit.  BUT even so, IF that was the case, he STILL should have seen me and NOT been so close to the curb!! and I did have to back up some to see if anyone was coming!!! but I was NOT on the street YET!

So I guess I am the NEXT in line….again….for a car accident. I backed into a metal pole this morning. I actually got caught on it where I couldn't get off. I was in the WORK PARKING LOT!!! Luckly, I work with about 20 men, and about 10 of them were there to 'save the day'. They picked up my car's rear-end and scooted it over to get me off the pipe. Clint, of course is pissed again…but we all knew that was coming. Any who…be careful peevers, someone else is bound to be in line behind me to get in an accident next.

And I agree with conana, my old xterra spirit is pissed because I traded her in for a bigger version of her. That is TWO wrecks in this new car since FEB! I SWEAR I am a careful driver! It has been years since I was in a accident before I go this car…..maybe the Pathfinder is just bad luck??

I have been dealing with it for two days now. Yesterday I was on my way out of town and was cut me off but a pick up, and I mean INCHES cut off. I was in rush hour traffic, and he put his blink on AS he turned. I slammed my brakes and luckily didn't hit him. If I had my old car I know I would have hit him - no way would I have been able to stop with studs. I guess it's a good thing I had the new car for that one. After cutting me off, he drove a few blocks and decided he wanted to get over another lane, and cut that guy off too!! I couldn't believe it as I got closer to passing him, it was a STATE TROOPER. Who the hell gave him that job?? I told a coworker and he said to me "I know EXACTLY what truck you're talking about"… must be typical for that dillhole.

This morning I was on my way into work and almost hit a moose. Again, thank goodness I had the new vehicle. I would have been driving faster if I was in my old car, and no way would my studs have stopped me. It wasn't a full grown moose, but I would have creamed it in my old car. I saw traffic coming towards us so I flashed my high beams, but they ignored it. I watched this truck come INCHES away from slicing that moose in half!! I was told that up here people don't understand that when you flash your high beams it's a signal to slow down and pay attention…

So far so good though *knock on wood*

Yesterday, at 4 o'clock, Rosie, the other girl I work with was getting off work, so I was going to run into to town to the bank, then go get me a soda…..she asked if she could ride with me. So I let her. Some guys from the shop were in front of us, they had just got off too. They were turning right at the stop sign, and were cocked to the side, and I was going to go straight around them. I am NOT used to my new gas pedal, or break for that matter, because in my old xterra, you had to have the pedal to the floor almost for it go any where. So I am turning my wheel with my foot about to slowly tap the gas to get around him, and I hit the gas to hard, before my wheel was fully turned, and my truck lunged forward! I have a girl in my passenger side who is about to deliver in less than 23 days, and I just got her into a fu<king wreck! I feel like SHlT! Not to mention this is in the car I have had for 2 weeks! So The truck in front pulls forward, and he just has a busted tail light. Wow! Then my truck can't be that bad, right??? Well, I get out to go look, and no that is NOT the case! I hit his driverside tail light RIGHT on my Passenger side blinker. The fender is pushed back, so the passenger side door wouldn't open, and one of the guys was going to tell Rosie to climb out the driver side, I said "No", and I yanked the door open, messing it up at the panel nearest the fender. I made her get out, and sit on the grass while I called the cops and told them to send an emt to check her over. After the cops got there, I finished looking at my car. The grill is cracked in one place, otherwise would be perfect, the hood is crunched right above the blinker, it will need to be replaced as weel as the bumper and light. I will upload a pic when I can. I still had the freaking dealer tags on it! Oh well, I feel no sentiment twards this car as some people might, I am just so freakin worried about Rosie. He stomach was hurting where her seatbelt tightened below her belly. I got my cell to call Clint, while they were checking Rosie's blood pressure in the ambulance. The bastard hung up on me! So I am seething right now, I was only mad at myself for getting into a wreck with a pregnant woman in my car, but now I am mad at a di<khead, who NEVER asked if either one of us was ok! That freakin truck can be replaced, Rosie, "Trey" the baby, and I CANNOT! So now all kinds of words are coming to my mouth when I see him pull up……….he gets out of his truck, and walks straight to the damaged side of the car, looks at it, then walks off to his truck. NOW I AM READY TO RIP HIS FUKKING HEAD OFF! We get everything cleared up, the cop says "Well this is a hell of a way to meet the new city employee.." trying to make me smile, didn't work. He said we could go, and didn't give me a ticket. So I turned around and drove the 2 blocks to the office, got Rosie out, made her put her feet up, and get an apointment with her doctor. She called me last night to tell me everything was fine. Thank GOD! I had been pacing circles in my floor!

I will rave about Clint later, when I have enought time to sit and do so!

This guy is rich, he must have the best insurance buy can buy, and he still wants to sue these people who probably have no money? Just goes to show you that money doesn't buy class or deceny. Hey Mr. Italian Jerk Off here's  an AMERICAN dollar go buy yourself a clue, you look like you could use one.   The family of the man who was killed should sue him and not the other way around!
