I totalled my car last Thursday. I was driving from class to work, it was snowing, the car in front of me stopped suddenly, and I tried to slam on my brakes but I slid right into their rear bumper. My car is smashed, so Mark is taking it off our hands for parts. The other car, however, might need a new bumper? It doesn't even seem like we were in the same accident.
Lucky for me, the officer didn't give me a citation because it wasn't really my fault. She did tell me to give myself more space from the car in front of me, and she called a tow truck for me. Whatever you do, DON'T let the officer call the tow company! The tow place will charge double when the call comes from a police officer. Total crap if you ask me, but I've learned my lesson! I am now car shopping. We'd really like a 4WD vehicle for camping and fishing, but we can't really afford something like that right now. I'll probably just get another civic of sorts.
On a more cheerful note, we went snowshoeing with the famdamily on Saturday and had a blast! The weather was perfect- snowing a little with no wind and a mild temperature. Aside from Diane being terrified to go uphill, and Josh throwing snow in my face, it was a hella good time! I think we all want our own snowshoes now. :)
Finally, Valentine's Day was great this year. Even though it was on Sunday, we went to dinner at Rodizio Grill. Josh had never been there, which shocks me, so I made reservations for us. We picked a great night to go because they served rattlesnake sausage, buffalo roast, elk, wild boar, and the best top sirloin I've ever had! SUCH a great meal, and totally worth the $70 we dropped on it!
February has been real, but March can't get here soon enough... Corned Beef... yummmmmmm
