Car Update
It's been a while since I actually posted anything. It has been busy over the
past couple of weeks. And the need for a new car for the wife has increased
the urgency for upgrading the MCSE. So I've been spending time reading and
playing about with that instead of learning Linux and FOSS related things.
Still, M$ pays the bills for now. At least I'll be ready when the times comes
that I need to work with FOSS.
But, I digress some here. I just thought I'd mention that my wife's car has
been ruled a total loss. It's not worth fixing it since the value of the car
is about half of what it would cost to fix the thing. Actually, it's worth
less than half. So, now we get to shop for a car about 3 years earlier than we
planned. Understandably Cindy isn't happy because we can't go shopping and get
what she wants and instead have to get what we can afford. I understand how
she feels, before my Impala every single car I ever owned was because I needed
a car now. I was hoping to give her the chance to shop around and
have fun. But, live throws ya curve balls sometimes and you just have to deal.
Oh, and here we are. It's a little over 1.5 weeks since the accident and the
girl who blew the stop and hit Cindy still hasn't filed here version
of what happened. Thus holding up the fault ruling and delaying our recovery.
To be fair, supposedly she had just gotten her wisdom teeth removed a day or
two after the accident and couldn't' talk but still. That doesn't mean she
can't type, or write.
So, that's the way of things.
