On Saturday night (or Sunday morning), at about 3:30 a.m., I woke up to Chris hurriedly throwing on some jeans and running outside. I followed him out, and that's when I saw it. A drunk driver had plowed into his car, which in turn crashed into mine. The driver had also hit our neighbor's mailbox, as well as ours.
The police were called, and they found the guy within fifteen minutes or so. Turns out he's a neighbor, he lives right around the corner. His car was totaled. We found out it was his second DUI in as many months.
Luckily he's insured, so we spoke to his agent and we're waiting for someone to come out and assess the damage.
I'm not quite sure where we'll end up. Hopefully we can get enough money out of it to buy Chris a new car. Repairing the damage to his car would probably cost more than he paid for it.
I'm also hopeful that we can get a rental car or two while we figure out what happens. For right now, we're using Chris's dad's car and we have today and Tuesday off, so we're fine with just hanging out at home as much as we can.
It's unbelievably frustrating that this happened to us. We live on a street with plenty of big houses and fancy cars, and *of course* it happened to us. We're very lucky no one was hurt, but it's still hard to think positive in a situation like this.
At least I liked my outfit today! I got this dress for $6 at Target without trying it on, and today I realized it has pockets! Dresses with pockets are my absolute favorite!!!
I got these white loafers at the thrift store for $4, and I'm pretty sure I'm in love! They're so cute and old-ladyish, and I think they're going to be my new favorite summer shoes.
Today I plan on getting a lot of crafty stuff done, especially some cute things I have planned for my sister's baby shower at the end of the month! I'm getting super excited to see how it turns out, and I have so many plans for decorations and favors that I'm really looking forward to!
