My poor sad broken SI :(

Some of you may already know my luck with cars and being hit or getting in an accident. (my wedding day)

For the ones who don't, let me give you a little background...

I've been driving (legally) for about 11 years now and have been in 30 or more accidents, I'm NOT exaggerating even a little bit!

I bought my first brand spankin new car in March 2007, my Honda Civic SI :)

Two weeks after purchasing my baby, I was rear-ended - I didn't even have my license plates yet. Since I've owned this car, I've been in 8 accidents, 1 on my wedding day, all of the other 7 in my SI.

Let me just add another piece of information I feel is VERY important... NONE of these 30 or so accidents have ever been my fault... EVER!!

I am writing this post today to vent about the unfortunate circumstaces that have happened in past 3 weeks. I'll start with July 30, 2009.

Incident #1 Jeff and I were in Hurrricane at our friend's house for the weekend, we needed to make a quick run to the Maverick. Jeff was driving, and pulled into an open parking spot, as we were pulling in, the car next to us started to pull out and had cranked the his steering wheel so hard that he was going to hit us if he kept reversing, so Jeff honked the horn and the driver stopped his car and pulled forward, hitting the side of my car anyway on the way back into the spot!!



Incident #2 Last week sometime, I was in the parking lot at the gym waiting for a KILLA parking spot, when this girl comes be-boppin out of the gym, walks right in front of my car, gets in her car, which happens to be parked right next to the spot I'm waiitng for, puts her car in reverse and backs right into me! The damage is almost in the same spot as the damage from incident #1!!


Incident #3 Tuesday evening driving home from work on I-15, I had to stop in my lane because of heavy traffic, the guy behind me, DIDN'T stop and drove right into the back of my car! He ROCKED my car, and now the stupid trunk doesn't even close!




I am so mad at what has happened! My very first brand new car is now just a wrecked POS! :(

Now I am having three different insurance companies pay to fix my car at the same time! Who pays for the damn rental car?? The first, second or third insurance company??

Augh, I don't know what I'm going to do, I'll probably sell the SI after it's fixed and buy something else - it's just not the same to me anymore, and I'm really sad.

Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or play with it,

Just pee on it and walk away.

Jeff and I went for a 4 wheeler ride up Big Cottonwood Canyon. It was quite chilly for August, but so beautiful as always.

I love Jeffrey Lane so much, he is my rock and my very best friend!

"you gotta be tough to live out west"

Waitress: Alright, here is your salmon salad

Me: Uh... A fly just landed on it.

Waitress: No it didn't.

Me: Yes, it did, I just saw it!

The waitress proceeds with putting the salad in front of me...

Waitress: You gotta be tough to live out west!

Me: I guess I'll just eat it :(

the day I baked the cookies

Me: Jeffy, where's the cookie sheet?

Jeff: Uh.. just use the cooling rack

Me: Perfect!


Me: OMG! Somethings wrong! The oven is smoking.. JEFF, help!

Jeff: What are you doing?!

Me: you told me to use the cooling rack!







Jeff: I didn't know you were going to bake cookies on it!

Me: What else would I need a cookie sheet for?!




The cookie sheet was outside by the BBQ - ruined by the rain - that's why he told me to use the cooling rack!
