My poor car.

Some bastard jackass rear-ended me today and then sped off. My poor brand new Hyundai is now damaged goods. She's officially used. Spent. Debased. Way before her time. Luckily for you, I was unhurt, and my friend Susan had her digital camera handy and snapped these sad pics:

So I spent five hours at Sandy's Tavern (home of the delicious Olive Burger) trying to sort out insurance and find a way home. Now I have been lent a shitty Ford that smells of burning rubber and has no CD player or driver's seat adjustment functions. The lady at the rental office seriously said "Good luck!" as I pulled out of their parking lot. The mutherf**ker who rammed me has been found and charged with hit and run. He was a 75 year old grampa with a handicap license plate (a fact that has somehow made me feel guilty for getting him in trouble with the law) and his insurance is suspect. We'll see how this turns out, but I'm mostly sad that my once perfect and dearly beloved economy car will never be the same. Poor baby.

Oh, and I somehow used this as an excuse to drink an entire bottle of Fat Bastard wine all by my lonesome. I'm weak.
