Dinged.

In life, always expect the unexpected--the annoyingly inconvenient type, not the happy good kind. (Expecting the happy goods, only leads to disappointment).

My car was backed into today by a monstrous SUV. It did some damage.

Luckily, the lady who did it was honest enough to go door knocking to find the owner of the vehicle (me).

I later spent an hour on the phone talking with an insurance person--most of that time was spent on hold, of course.

I now have to wait two weeks in order to have the damage assessed by an adjuster before I can take my car in to be repaired.

And I need to find a shop that does decent body work.

Damn the unexpected.
