Baby Fiat is Injured. and in shop.

I don't think I am a lucky person. AT ALL.

Coming back from the mall... I was sitting at the light at 270/Wilson-ish.  Had just gotten off Exit 10 onto Roberts Road.  Got rear ended by an oldsmobile.  Thankfully that car is short and went straight for my bumper and not the rest of the car.  My car is ok-ish.  Just the bumper jacked up and falling off.  And my leg hurts and I smacked my head.  I hobble.

His car was in TERRIBLE shape.  Totally smashed up front, window totally shattered.  He was beating the inside of his car and hitting the horn in anger and his horn went for so long it died.  THen he had to kick the door to get himself out.  I was a sitting duck.  He was searching for his wallet when it happened? so essentially he was too close to me, wasn't looking, and the light was RED. he would have probably run it if I wasn't there.

So... cop was very nice.  I immediately called 9-11, my road-side assistance with FIAT which sent a tow truck in like 40 minutes.  By that time I had talked to my mother, father, and Trish.  And the medics who think I should be ok but my leg hurts/sore.

By the time I was in the tow truck headed towards bob boyd collision center the other guy was still waiting for tow truck and Trish was on her way to meet me there to take me home. She is awesome.

She also helped me walk Molly (who is also limpy). We are quite a pair.

Antonio will pick me up for work tomorrow thankfully.

Life. Expect the unexpected.

I am sore.
