570.0. "Calamity Sloan" by SEND::SLOAN (Wind in the willows plays tea for two) Tue May 06 1997 03:27

              
    Well my VW is heading to the shop for repairs again. Some yoyo drove
    into my car's rear end while I was stopped with my blinker on to turn
    on to Bruce st.  He said, 'I just didn't see you'.  He was going about
    30mi/hr. at the time.
    
    Went to have x-rays on my neck today. got some pain killers and muscle
    relaxers (for after today's margaritta's)..
    
    I'm getting to know the accident/claims/insurance/dr's. drill pretty
    well.
    
    what does not kill you makes you stronger ..

    Cathy  look at the way you keep the insurance industry alive
           you are doing your part.. hope all is well, a few
           painkillers. muscle relaxers, a few drinks...
           will numb the experience.

	just the other night when I was coming over to visit, I
	sat waiting at that exact spot for a space in oncoming traffic,
	and I definately remember looking in my rearview mirror to see
	if the cars in back of me saw that I was stopped cause I had this
	feeling that they wouldn't - not that I could've done anything if 
	they didn't - but, weird, that you should get backended so soon 
	after I had that "premonition" that it would happen to me there...

	sounds like you really got hurt in this one?  hope you get 
	back to "normal!" soon...

	ps - about that bus - let Guntis drive!  even with Calamity Sloan
	in the car, for some reason, when he's driving amazingly accidents
	that should happen somehow don't!!

570.8reply vs. note errorSEND::SLOANWind in the willows plays tea for twoTue May 06 1997 11:4214
    
    Too funny. Buzzed out on pain killers, etc.   I was thinking I'd edit
    a reply I put in the bummer note yesterday about my accident. So at
    2:00 am I was up changing my reply from, 'what don't kill you makes 
    you stronger, to what does not kill you...     ~~~~
                          ~~~~
    anyways I accidently put it in as a note vs. a reply.  sorry 'bout
    that. It can be moved if a moderator sees fit.
    
    Obviously the network guru's with BEA/DEC have not taken me off the
    net yet.  Now they are talking June :-).

Hope you feel better Cath.

And Debbess, somehow your recommendation about Guntis does not
give me that warm fuzzy feeling for him as chauffer!!
