What a fucking morning...

I'm sitting at my desk talking on the phone with a client, and I hear the squeeling tires and then the impact....look out my window and see my 2000 Jetta smashed, a taxi up a curb stopped by a fire hydrant, and another car with its front all done up.

This is the 3rd fucking time my car has been hit while parked. I cannot even believe how unlucky I have been.

So the cabbie is pleading that I don't call the cops, cuz he'll lose his licence, but my insurance company advises me to. So I take the middle of the road and decide that we're going down to the station to fill out reports.

Then this older guy comes up and asks if everyone is ok....and then another businessy guy comes soon too, and they're trying to tell us that we shouldn't call the cops. I'm getting really sketched out at this point. Then the one passerby asks the other to give me a brochure. They're fucking auto-part vultures and they want our business. These guys then proceed to follow us to the station and sit in the interrogation room and ask us if everything is going ok.

Whatever. I'm just fucked now cuz my car's going into the shop for a while. Don't know how I'm going to get to my meetings this week....especially cuz I don't know how I'd get parking at my place for a rental, etc.

And here is my "new look" car:

Id look into those auto part guys being conveniently close to the accident... sad but true, I know people who used to break into houses, then go sell them home security systems the same week for a commission.

Josh, that is the BEST excuse not to come to my birthday yet! :D

Just kidding. Aw, Joshy, that fucking sucks. Why is it that you have such bad luck with your car near your house? So strange...

Did u park it in the same place as on Saturday?
 
Arg josh.

That's too bad!

Some dicksmack rearended me on the Gardiner on Friday, so I'll need a new bumper too. I would have preferred to beat the motherfucker to a pulp with a spiked hammer, but I'll settle for a new bumper. I'm certainly glad I don't have any weapons in the car, I'm sure I would have used them.

I wish i had pictures of my big car accident from last year (it made the front page of the local newspaper) but I didn't take any digital pics. Basically the entire front end was gone. Although, funnily enough the licence plate and cover were completely unscathed. Weird.

If it made the front page of the newspaper in acton(the independent and free press) it could have been a door ding in a parking lot.

yup - good ole mill and main! I smashed into that house on the corner opposite the drug store.

Some slut from the Real Estate company came running out with a camera and took a picture (i'm lying on the ground outside my car at this point in time) then went inside and closed the door.

Yeah, thanks bitch for offering to make a call for me - I'll be fine.

Where should I have Pulitzer send your prize for photojournalism, ya fuckin' whore?

:rolleyes:

Hey, thanks for the messages of condolences. lol - my car will recover after this short battle with the forces of evil.

Yep, Sunny, my car was in the exact spot. I've often wondered when the time would come, cuz its a bit of an unregulated intersection. People do that jog around the corner (which should be illegal) all the time.

Last year in April, my car was keyed from front to back in the same spot, but my friend down the street caught him. Dude did 30 something cars on the street and got the shit beat out of him with a hockey stick. I got money from him for that shit.

Fucking Hamilton.

!Time to get out of Ham-town!

Really sorry to see/read that as well Josh. It's a good thing you won't be in that freakish town for much longer.

Did that cabbie get nailed?

I hope all is well anyhow.

oh shitty deal josh! now u know why i always question the thought of parking on the street when i goto ur house :D and, u should have called the cops. Yea poor little acbbie, pleading to keep himself out of trouble........but there is a reason why he is pleading. He must be a really shitty driver if one accident would make him lose his license. And he should lose his license, damn, i dont wanna get in a cab with him! :D

hope evrything works out!

*jen*

I actually did call the cops, I just refrained from having a cop come to the scene to charge the cabbie.

He said he'd had 8 accidents in his life, but this was the first that was his fault. He was really really dumb. It took him 3 times as long as me to fill out his accident report at the station.

The other guy who was involved just called me and told me that we should have had him charged just to cover our asses in case he goes and tries to claim that it wasn't his fault after the fact.

This could get interesting, methinks, but in the meantime, I'm taking my car in tomorrow and I get a nice new VW to drive for a week.

Oh yea, joey, I don't have much choice....cuz my building doesn't have parking. I think they were still carting around horses and buggies when this place went up in the 1930s. It's just the chance you take when you're an ordinary guy trying to park in peace.
