What the hell did I do?

People are trying to kill me. Well, not necessarily me, but my poor mini-van. Not long ago, this happened:

Can you see it? This big dent on the side of the van? I got sideswiped in the parking lot of the dance school.

Not great especially since no one owned up to it. This was around October 25.

Then today, I am stopped at a green light because about 3 fire trucks are peeling up the road heading (I'm assuming) to a huge plume of black smoke a couple miles ahead when I am rear-ended by a little Mazda! What the Fuck! Seriously?

So I'm working myself up into a really good lather even though I have 3 four year olds in the car with me. I see this teenager get out of the car and am even more pissed. I roll down my window and...

THE KID IS DEAF!!!

Really?

Now ALL the wind has been taken out of my sails and I feel bad. The kid didn't stand a chance. We had the green but he couldn't hear the fire trucks sirens. Not really his fault and certainly not mine. *sigh* I thought he was going to cry.

Funny thing is, my car has NO visible damage. We are going to have it checked out just in case there is hidden damage but the front end of his car is totaled. His little car went right under my bumper and took out his lights and smashed his front end.

Merry Christmas!
