it just gets lonely sometimes

We planned to finish Matrix marathoning tonight, but instead, on my way to pick up Jenny, I was a complete moron and rear-ended a car. I didn't damage the other car too bad, but uh... I totally trashed the front of mine. (And my attention was diverted by fiddling with my cell phone of all things. Jesus Christ, how much of a typical kidbrat retard am I?)



The crash.



Yeah.



The other car afterwards.



My car afterwards. Notice how the license plate is gone - the woman driving the other car noticed and I looked around to see where it could have dropped, but... it was nowhere to be found. So now I need to have those replaced too. :/

...Come to think of it, I think my license plate got stuck UNDER THE BUMPER OF THE OTHER CAR. Ohman. D:

At least the lady I crashed into was decent, unlike psycho parking lot woman from last year.

Other than, you know, having gotten into a car accident that was actually totally my fault (unlike the parking lot "accident" from last year), this upcoming three-day weekend is the three-day weekend that I planned to drive up to Santa Barbara and hang out with Court. I compared the train ticket prices to the gas prices I'd be spending, and it'd actually be cheaper to take the train, so I could still go, but... kind of a hassle, and we wouldn't be able to go out and do stuff like we'd planned. Also wouldn't be able to do THE AMAZING RACE with Andrew, but... yeah, I guess I'll take the train if the car hasn't been fixed by Friday (and I doubt it will be).

Baaaah. D: I freaked out during the crash, but I'm okay now. Could have been worse and no one got hurt, I guess. Still, augh, such irresponsibility on my part and I feel terrible that my parents are going to have to pay the $500 deductible, even if it's not like we can't afford it or anything. Again, NEEDS JOB, but I just can't realistically look for one when I'm about to start school again. I'll have enough of a hard time not falling flat on my face as is.

Oh, yeah, right, and I just happen to be starting school at SMC this week, so... god, such bad timing to fuck up my car. D: adgfasaslfa

Whoops. That's all that can be said, really. Glad it worked out. <3;

That really sucks. DX Car troubles are always really stressful. I'm glad you're doing okay, though. :X

Hope the train ride and weekend goes well. ^^;

Holy shit, looks like the van didn't even TAKE any damage.

At least you're not as bad as my brother. The first day after he got his license, he pulled out into an intersection and broadsided a cop.
