So today we went and had the estimate done on the car. We found this place because our very reliable car mechanic told us to go there. It’s gonna be the cheapest around since we’re playing for this out of pocket. So, the estimate took about 15 minutes. The estimated damage to repair the damage to our car - $1,500. Wanna know how much we paid for the car when we bought it back in March of 04? That’s right - $1,500! We may be able to save some money by going to the junkyard to get the parts we need, and doing some of the work ourselves, but it’s till gonna be about $600 even with all of that. And who knows if we’ll even be able to find the part we need. Every time I look at the back of the car, and think about what they want to fix it, I just laugh. And laugh. And laugh.  It keeps me from crying about.  Fifteen hundred fucking dollars!! There outta be some sort of program that you can apply for benefits for if you’re involved in a hit and run. I mean - I’ve got insurance to cover anyone I hit, but I can’t afford full coverage. I’ve NEVER been able to afford full coverage. It just sucks be donkey...well..you know....that some Jackass hit us, took off, and now is sticking us with a 1,500 repair bill.  Oh. Oh. The laughter has started again.
