My life.... So much YAYness!

[tinhuvielartanis]

So week before last, I was out to get a hamburger because I had no protein in the house and the doctor said PROTEIN, BITCH! As I toodled along, trying to be all bouncy and shite, this oncoming car crossed over the line. I swerved to miss it. It kept on going. I popped onto the shoulder and lost control of the car. I spun out like Vin Diesel on crack. I hit a tree.

I had made one payment on this car.

One.

ONE.

And it is totalled. And I may have a hairline fracture in a rib, though it's probably just bruising.

Nationwide is paying off the whole loan, or at least most of it. I'm hoping that Carmax will let me take any spillage there might be and add it to a different vehicle. This means my payment will go up and I'll probably lose my TV, but I rarely watch it anyway. If I need noise, I've got movies to keep me warm.

I'm trying to be positive about all this.

But with the cycles of grief that keep bombarding me, along with the fantabulous bout of luck I've been enjoying now for months, it's really rather difficult.

So, in about two weeks' time, I've lost my computer and my car. Next the house will burn down and I'll be struck by lightning.

That last bit is good luck.

That happened to me once, only I swerved and hit a corner of a building. Other driver just went on his merry way.

I hope your rib is going to be okay. And how is your new knee? Two accidents since you got that thing installed - must be bionic.

I do Reiki. Let me know if you ever want a distance session performed. I have a pic of you to use. I could light a candle and send you some concentrated goodness. T'would be my pleasure. Just email me with a time that's good.

Smart cars are cute. I always think they should have a carrying handle on top. Not good for where I'm located though - we get deep snow here. Roller skates make as much sense to me as a Smart Car in a Canadian winter.

Take heart Darlin'. The tide has to turn soon. Nothing, not even bad luck, lasts forever.

Thank you, dahlink. Once I'm fully back at the house, I will definitely cyber-jab you about that Reiki. I'm pretty much spending most of my time at Diane's right now. It's a bit of a long story, so I may write you a letter when I can.

I can see why a Smart wouldn't be very feasible in the Great White North. Still, it sucks that you aren't able to grab one (by the handle on top) because of weather concerns. Since I'm alone now and never need much room for anything I'm transporting, I think a Smartie would be perfect. If that works out, I may have to hire a herd of clowns to see how many can fit inside. haha

Did someone say "clowns"?

I knew you'd twig on to that.
