BTB: Deer oh dear! |
Posted: 10 Apr 2011 11:44 AM PDT Last Friday morning at 8am, I drove to the barn and met the farrier (needed to hold Riley for him). Then I headed back on the country roads toward work, about a 15 minute drive. I could not have been going more than 40MPH when I heard a loud crash and felt an impact on the driver side. In the rear view mirror I saw falling tufts of hair and the female deer struggling across the road. I'm afraid she didn't fare well. I was shaken but kept driving. No damage was apparent until I turned sharp onto a city road, and then I heard my wheel make a funny noise. I called the insurance company and drove to the "collision center." The damage to my Yaris is pictured left. Well, that's why I have insurance. I drove back to work in a rental car. Relaxing at home... After 5pm I go home and reflect on my not so stellar day. Bob is at work, and I decide to take it easy. I'm home lounging around in a John Deere sweatshirt paired with oversized, pink plaid flannel jammy bottoms tucked into my terracotta Uggs. Quite a getup. I go to pick up my cat, who is looking out the window. SH*T!!! A car i in the driveway! Someone's coming! I fly upstairs, change into jeans/bra/sweater, and run to the door. Hey, why is no one knocking? Here's why. The car in the driveway is my rental car. That was actually a pretty good laugh. |
