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.

First "Bumwa" was a new 1971 2002. High performance 5s since 1987. Beamer motorcycles too, currently on an 07 BMW K1200 GT; also a Moto Guzzi 1000 SP III.
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...

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