This is too funny, you simply can not make this sh*t up...
I went to the conference I attend in my home state. It was wonderful, I had a great conference experience and a lovely visit with my dear friend and her husband.
I decided to drive home Friday night, about a five-plus hour drive. Long story short, on a lonely, mostly deserted stretch of interstate I was hit by a hit-and-run driver. I could finish the journey, but my car is hurt. I will deal with it after my trip to the west coast. I had even found someone at the conference who was EXCITED to take my car as a donation. Ugh.
Guess that trading it in is my best option if I do not fix it.
Damn.
The important thing is, I am fine. Just peeved.
