Maybe he didn't have car insurance?
Yeah, this is my guess. In which case I'm still not going to just hand him a random chunk of change without at least a mechanic/body shop estimate.
That said, when the reverse happened to me about 15 years ago (hit by a woman who was ADAMANT about not getting the insurance companies involved), I absolutely should have taken the $500 cash she offered me instead of insisting on exchanging insurance info, since the damage to my car was only about $75 and it turned out her insurance was expired, so nothing was covered.
Oh, poor Dylan.
Later this afternoon I have my 1:1 with my boss, which means I need to pretend I didn't read the calibration meeting summary that was mistakenly sent out. Hahahahaha.
Nothing about me in the summary was a surprise, it's stuff I know I need to work on, but the temptation to ask
"So if we were doing formal mid-year reviews, what would my score be?"
is so strong.
Gah. I am not ready for the outdoor temperatures to be in the 80s F. I was just settling into my winter groove, and all of a sudden we've skipped Spring entirely and are having two days of Summer Preview.
I love the neighbourhood I live in now, and my housemates are two of my dearest friends, but my goodness do I miss my fog dragons and "only two days of above 80F every year" weather.
I read a post recently on my Mastodon feed that basically said "I wanted a device that lets me know my friends are all right and I got an anxiety rectangle that I keep compulsively refreshing" and I thought "if I want to know how my friends are doing, I just log into b.org." Not an original observation, I'm sure, but thank you all for posting the little things that keep us connected.
Attorneys who act like billing numbers are some silly bother I invented to irritate them should probably be thrashed.
I'm hip, Karl.
Trudy, I could get a whip from work, but they'd like it.
Trudy I’m sure the idea of a billable hour is shocking and new to them and they probably need time to adjust. Maybe a few years. Maybe forever.

"Dude, how do you think you pay for your green fees?"
Supposed that cool off tomorrow, Karl.
I'm getting another , different type of ultrasound for my abdomen, different medice for the stomach pains etc and a head CT scan .
I've been feeling very emotional and vulnerable because it taps into my issues if when I had health stuff going on and adults/Drs didn't believe me or take it seriously I told my doctor this and he was very reassuring. I also thanked him for never acting like my weight could be an issue for any kind of treatment or that losing weight would solve my problems .
The Table Rock Fire continues to burn. They are mandatory evacuations now for 55 homes, 7 have been destroyed, it's burned over 3000 acres and is 0% contained.
All because some teenagers were smoking. .
Its been windy and there hasn't been any rain. We saw a Chinook flying today and I was wondering if it was headed for the fire .
Apparently a ton of folks at dancing got Covid last week, so we ended up canceling tonight, lest it spread more. I volunteered to sit outside and let folks know…and then a half hour before it would’ve started, the transformer down the street blew, so we wouldn’t have had power and would’ve had to cancel anyway! Of course now I’m paranoid I’m going to get COVID.
