Understanding a Car Crash
It's not really news anymore, but last Saturday I was in a pretty intense car crash. All parties were okay, no injuries. There was many factors that kind of lead up to it, as well as the cause and effect of hitting my car. I've spent the past week trying to figure it all out in my head and still can't seem to get a total grasp of how a car could get me going west, swerve and end up on eastbound traffic. Maybe after I get some more feedback, I can try to make a diagram. The first couple days I felt quite at fault with it, but after thinking about it some more, it def. wasn't all me. Some of that disaster could have been avoided if certain drivers knew how to react, slash use their brakes.
With that in mind, I can't really begin to tell you how much the stress level has increased in the past week. Luckily and conveniently, Kaleb's mom was out of town this week and I was able to have transportation for this week. I still haven't found a place to live, as the fact that last time I went out to do so, I got in a wreck (then the lady ended up renting out the spot like the next day, awesome). And now the number one agenda is getting a new car, which is another annoyance. Just going to have to settle on something small and old (regarding the house).....
Among other things this week, I've been trying to deal with insurance crap, which is slow. and also heavy on trying to do layouts for SportsNW-which I actually got an extension (wish I would have known that Monday....). So I'm quite glad to see this week kind of clearing out, although nothing has really been done and resolved to make me less stressed. No car, no house....but at least I have a job. And having a job is definately a good thing. So I've been grateful to have that, as well as good friends to help me get on my feet...
In other news:
-Officially unofficially launched a new design blog with Kaleb Nimz and fiance at hand, Marilyn Grimaud. Feel free to make frequent stops: flux/form (not to give too much away, but look for more materials with that moniker coming soon....)
Items adding to the schedule:
----Oct. 3rd-Bear's Bearday Bash (tentative date)
----Oct. 16th-Where the Wild Things Are
----Nov. 8th-Russian Circles/Red Sparowes @The Conservatory. (anyone care to join me?)
Look for future updates, possibly about getting a new car and a place to live....
