My first accident February 23, 2006

Monthly cell phone bill: $70
Weekly gas bill: $40 a fill
Amount per credit for a night class at RCC in Owatonna: $133

Smashing your grandfather's truck into someone else's while backing out in RCC parking lot and talking on your phone at the same time: $1200

Hearing your grandfather laugh his head off after you tell him you just had an accident in his truck: priceless.


I just got a call from the guy I ran into (he was still in class when it happened... parked vehicle) and he told me not to worry about it at all, that he had to look really hard even to find the small dent that I knew was there. He actually thought it was really cool that I left a note asking him to call so we could figure it out. haha... cool. I thought for sure it was gonna be some really really anal chauvinistic guy that thinks women shouldn't be driving and that he was gonna make me pay to replace his whole bumper. Luckily not. =)

I didn't get hurt... too much. I hurt my neck a little, but it's no big deal. Just snapped it around too quickly after it happened.

I can't believe how much it's gonna cost though.. my god. They have to replace the whole back quarter panel on that side. hojeez.

So. That was my exciting night last night. Fun fun! =) Could have been so much worse though. I could have gotten really really hurt, and there could have been somebody in the other vehicle. And I could have been going 70mph and not have had a seatbelt on. But alas, I was going all of 5mph, had a seatbelt on, and no one was in the other vehicle. Good gracious. haha.
