When I checked my email this morn I received the most touching note from one of my best friends from college. It was expressing what a true friend is and relayed how much FUN we have together--it was so unexpected and wonderful; it made be smile. It makes me want to reach out to people who mean a lot to me...(but if I don't, I KNOW who you are!)
Worst Part of the Day-
I was rear-ended today. Jeez. Scarlet and I had just gone swimming for an hour (it was sooo much fun with her!) and we were just casually driving back and it happened at a stop sign. It did not do any damage (maybe a scuff, literally). When I got out and saw there was minimal damage I thought the other driver would appreciate my utter coolness by not caring about a scratch and just letting it go. We did exchange info, but it seemed silly to make a police report with no damage to either car. Before parting, my little last word self just HAD to ask the driver if he just didn't see me or the stop sign, or what. He said "Well you started to go and then slammed on your breaks." I said "Not exactly, I inched out and then stopped when I saw a car coming and whatever--you hit me from behind--you weren't watching me, I guess." He went on saying I wasn't paying attention (what?) and went on to say he was a paramedic and so he knows I was at fault. Hmph. At this I said, "Well, let's just call the police then and make it official and let them decide." To that he started to hem and haw and back track and we agreed to let it go. Jeez, dude. Know when you're getting off easy. (I wish so badly that Will-O was with me in the car--cause I never really know what the best course of action in this type of situation...)
