I love my insurance company. I just talked to them, and they said since the accident was clearly not my fault, I won't have to pay the deductible. They're sending someone to my house to check the damage sometime next week.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now, I just need to stop this anxiety attack.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Phew, that's a relief about the insurance, sj. Glad you're OK but I agree you should watch out for soreness as the day progresses.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
sj, I'm glad you're OK. Everything else can be fixed.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I'm glad you aren't hurt, sj!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
About how big a bird, Zen? Could the yellow breast have been sort of orangey?
Smaller than a crow. Bigger than a starling. Bright yellow breast, bright blue body. Gorgeous. Never saw one before. Almost ran off the road looking at it.
I've been thinking of putting in bird feeders and bird houses, up high and away from ledges so the cats can't get at them.

Eek, sj! I'm glad you're okay.
Funny to see the LUSH crazy-ass customer service experience posted as I experienced it today. They opened a LUSH in my local mall (the one we're at all the time!!!!) and I was so excited! Today was their first day (guess that was my first mistake - heading in with a new crew in a new store). I was totally accosted, even though I told the salesperson I'm a huge LUSH fanatic and was just looking to get some bath stuff for me and my kid. She proceeded to take me to a chair and get all these moisturizers and talk about it helping with my stretch marks (yes, I'm hugely pregnant, but I don't have stretch marks). It was so uncomfortable because the way she did it made me feel like I would have been downright rude to refuse. Finally I said I needed to go because my kid wouldn't last much longer. As I headed out of the store, I saw that they had DW and Shane cornered, doing a bubble bar demo! OMG! Worst ever! Next time, I'm going in with my firm face on.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I think the sole advantage to the bowling-lane-width tininess of the Lush on Powell St. in SF has got to be that there's literally no room for that stuff once you get more than maybe four customers in the shop at the same time. You file in, you get your stuff, you squee with the counterpeople at the counter, and then you file out, and that's it. I suppose a lone customer might be accosted, but with a handful or more the counterpeople are stuck right at the counter.
sj, I'm so glad you and your car are okay, and your insurance is being so good about it. But, damn, any kind of car accident sucks (though a bit less for you than for the driver behind you).
