Well, our 2007 Honda Civic won’t
see 2014. Earlier today, while driving my eight year old son to karate, going
around a curve, the car ran into a little trouble. Crossed lanes, hit a
culvert, rolled two and a half times.
No more Honda Civic.
Fortunately son number one came
out of it ok. Just some nicks and scratches for me. Went to the hospital. They
did their check-ups, told me to go home and have a shower and clean my cuts.
Worst part of that is… they’re going to send me a bill for the visit. Maybe in
America; but when did an Australian public hospital charge for looking at some
scratches… or pretty much anything else? And not even clean and kiss my
boo-boos for me!
Got to say, watching the rolling
while it happened was pretty awesome. Except for worrying about my boy. Kind of
expected a death or two, or at least dismemberments. Nope, the Gods love us.
And I love the smell of Dettol.
Was going to put the car in to
get serviced in the next month. Oh well, guess I can use the servicing money now
for the towing fee. And the hospital fee. And I guess I don’t need to pay car
rego for the civic. So I guess it’s win-win-lose-win-draw-spleen.
