My car is not having a good week . First I hit a pothole on the way home from work and bent two wheels. They are currently being repaired. Four days later someone backs into my left side bumper . The only positive thing, if you could even call it positive is that the person that hit my car left a number to call. I just got off the phone with my insurance and since I was not at fault, I dont have to pay any deductable. My cars not having a good week!-car_004.jpgMy cars not having a good week!-car_009.jpg

Sorry. Since misery may love company, if it makes you feel any better, I keyed my own (rear) door this afternoon, letting the dog into the back seat...

Almost as bad as me dropping the corner of a glass pane on the c-pillar. Cost me $700 to repair

I knew I would mess the car up somehow, I always do. I just hope that was the worst. Knocking on wood... furiously.
