BEFORE I GO ANY FURTHER, THIS PICTURE IS OF MY CAR, BUT NOT THE FENDER BENDER THAT TOOK PLACE FRIDAY. THIS PICTURE WAS TAKEN ON MEMORIAL WEEKEND IN 2005 AFTER A HYDROPLANING ACCIDENT ON I-44. I JUST USED THIS PICTURE BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE ONE OF THE FENDER BENDER YET.
I WAS SITTING AT A STOPLIGHT, IT WAS POURING DOWN RAIN. I WAS ONLY ABOUT A MILE AWAY FROM HOME. I SUDDENLY FELT A "HIT" FROM THE BACK. I KNEW I HAD BEEN HIT, BUT THE FIRST THING THAT CAUGHT MY ATTENTION WAS THAT MY SHOES HAD BEEN KNOCKED OFF. I HAD SLIP ON SKETCHER SANDALS, AND BOTH OF THEM WERE OFF MY FEET AND LAYING IN THE FLOORBOARD OF THE CAR. ANOTHER THING I NOTICED WAS THE SHADE THAT COVERS MY SUN ROOF WAS HALFWAY OPENED.
I WAS NOT INJURED IN ANY WAY. I DIDN'T EVEN FEEL JOLTED OR JERKED AT ALL. I WAS A BIT SHAKEN BECAUSE I FELT ANXIOUS ALL THE REST OF THE DAY AND EVENING. NOW I'M LOOKING TO HAVE MY CAR PUT IN THE SHOP SO IT CAN GET A REAR BUMPER TRANSPLANT. HOPE IT DOESN'T TAKE LONG. WHEN IT WENT INTO THE SHOP FOR THE ACCIDENT IN 2005, IT WAS THERE FROM THE END OF MAY UNTIL THE END OF AUGUST.
THIS WAS JUST ONE OF THOSE LITTLE INCONVENIENCES THAT HAPPEN AND THE YOUNG LADY THAT HIT ME WAS VERY KIND AND VERY REMORSEFUL. I'M THANKFUL THAT IT WAS SO MINOR AND NO ONE WAS HURT. IT COULD HAVE BEEN SO MUCH WORSE.
