Thanks, guys. And special kudos for Daffy Duck who is always a pleasure!

Things are looking better now... but I still have no car. But I'll live.

Fritz (I assume you are Fritz): My dissertation deals with major meteorological events in the Houston-Galveston area and its effects on local terrain, both topographically and tomographically.

Also yes I made all my friends GTFO and crashed my car just so I wouldn't have to deal with you :`(

Would it be in bad taste if I said I just realized how ironic your avatar is? By the way...

Nice pun. Also, wasn't your car already totaled when you got into the crash? With that being said, thats sucks :sad: .

My guess is that while the car was totaled beyond repair the day of the accident, it was officially reduced-to-a-little-cube-by-a-machine when she posted the "BALLS" message. Just makes it all... more real. :(

This sucks soooo muuuch D:

I'm glad to hear that nobody was hurt at least. I hope everything works out eventually some way or another.

Yeah, actually I was initially told that they thought they could repair the car. So that got my hopes up and everything, and I was picturing driving it to school again in the fall and everything. But then I got a call that essentially said, "Whoops, we were wrong, it's a goner." That was pretty disheartening.

I'm getting the Kelley Blue Book value for it, which is around $11,500, which is enough to pay it off. And even if it isn't, I have GAP Insurance. So it'll be paid off anyway.

Then there's the issue of another car...
