The Loathesome Hunt for a New (well, very used, actually) Car October 5, 2007

Being without a car sucks. Hunting for a car sucks. Hunting for a car in the $3K range that is driveable, comfortable and isn’t falling apart or covered in sticky nicotine stains and cigarette burn holes REALLY sucks.
The Sasquatch would like to see me in a car that wraps a little more steel around me than the Crapmobile did, wee thing that it was. After this accident (and the tremendous pain I’m experiencing), I agree with him. Back spasms that suddenly make you weep like a baby? They suck even more than hunting for a damn car.
Grrrrrrrr.

…while using their cell phones:
I’m taking my headache and my back pain to the hospital now. More tomorrow. But just so you have the punchline — the woman who plowed into me at full speed while I waited at a red light? She took off, not realizing I’d taken a cell phone photo of her license plate.
Busted!
Yours from the stiff and sore zone,
Merujo
