Son of a bitch

Yesterday Erik & I were both driving to work and we were stopped next to each other at a red light.  He was turning left and I was blowing kisses to Kire, and when he started going, so did I, only my light wasn't green.  I smashed into the back of a Land rover.  There really wasn't any damage to his car, but he was like, " oh the bumper might be misaligned..."  So I know I'm going to have to pay something, and my bumper is banged up, but not too bad.  But everything with fixing cars is always so expensive, even though it looks minor.
I haven't gotten into a car accident since I was 16, so I'm pretty lucky, but it was just such a stupid mistake I was pissed.
But the day was not a total loss.  This patient of mine came in with this fabulous bag she said she got at TJ Maxx.  So I went there later and got this great red Guess bag that was regularly $128 for $28!  So it made my day a little better : )

buying new things always makes you feel better no matter what.. until you look at the credit card bill! But when it is a great deal thats the best!

That sucks. At least you have a cute purse now! TJ Maxx is my favorite place to go when I am feeling down :)

I knew I had to read this post when the title said "bitch." Sorry to hear about your accident...always so annoying to have to deal with something like that. I am glad you were not hurt, though. Sounds like a great bag!

hahah, ok I have to laugh at this. What a great story and especially great because it was all fixed by an awesome red handbag. Anyway, I'm sorry that it had to happen to you, that totally sounds like something I would've done.

P.S. Skye congrats on your pregnancy! I'm due the week before you.
