My car joined "the club"
We had a friend over this afternoon to help make cookies and she called a little while ago. She said that she might have backed into my car with her jeep. She did. Just another stress I don't need right now...
I don't want to be mad at her because I know it was not malicious or on purpose but it still sucks that now after almost a year of ownership I have kept the car in extremely good shape that something like this happens. Its not earth-shattering damage but I had plans to detail the car today after she left:

:( I'm really sorry to hear the news Morgan, that's too bad. It sucks when it's your friend too...my mom did the same thing to my car once.

"Friends" should pay for the damage they do to their "Friends" car.

She offered to cover any costs but with school, the election and two jobs its not exactly something I have time to deal with...

Wahoo for me, the car is fixed and looks great!
Overall today was actually kinda nice, got A's on some major projects at FSU and I got the car back... nice when things can sometimes go my way for once :)

Glad your car is fixed. How much did it cost and what kind of cookies did you make?

I had a coworker back into me recently and it made a couple scratches in my bumper. Cheapest estimate was 709 dollars to get it fixed because they had to pull off the rear lip paint it and reapply it after replacing the bumper |
