You’re going to think I’m joking but I swear to you this true. I too got in a wrecked (not rear ended but sideswiped) in a week old new car (this was 10 years ago) by a guy drinking a red stripe. He was alone in the car but it wasn’t his. It was his girlfriends and he tried to give me his girlfriend’s insurance card. He asked me to tell the insurance co. that she was driving. Could it be the same couple? If it is, I am totally surprised they are still together.

Sweet jesus, what a day you had!

The only thing I can say that hasn’t been said already is that that may be the only time a camera phone is useful.

Yeah, I feel your pain too … I thought all cars should be banned from New Orleans and everyone should take streetcars (that would be running on every street) until I then saw a story in the T-P about two streetcars that collided!!! Sometimes it feels like you just can’t win in this town ….

Another of my friends commented that the people in NOLA are the nicest on the planet … that is until they get in a car ….

Hope the ‘wheel’ is now on the upswing for you!!!

hahahahaha, we’re so alike. I worry ALL THE TIME, too. I was born with a streak of grey hair, even. I also don’t sleep well, unless I’m sick (which only happens twice a year or so), but then I end up waking up coughing myself to death.

It wasn’t a depressing comment. You’re right. It’s the journey that matters; I don’t think this Europe trip would matter nearly enough if I wasn’t where I am right now in life.

Glad you’re ok. That would be terrifying!
And breaking down on the GNO? I’d freak.

Glad Rita gave a smile to that day!

I got angry when reading your post when the officer said I don’t smell beer on his breath.. I can only imagine your rage.

I am glad everything turned out okay and that god lead you over to Rita for some simple kindness that was much needed on your end..

Ugh! You poor thing! What a mess. I think it’s horrible that guy didn’t get busted with his beer!!! I would’ve been furious.
