I'm like a neglectful parent. I sit here and fool around, constantly thinking about the work I want/need to do here, trying to convince myself it'll be fine if I wait one more day. Luckly this site isn't a living creature. I was in a car accident last week. Tuesday night to be exact, on my way home from work. The airbags deployed, the passenger side window shattered, my car's basically totalled. I say basically because we haven't heard from the insurance company yet; however, it's going to cost $6,000 to repair and my car was only worth $3,000 15,000 miles ago. It's a '97 black Ford Mustang and I love that car. I'm already looking at new cars though, because it's hard to believe the insurance company will cover that. The 2005 Mustangs are nice, they cost about the same as a Civic Hybrid. The differences are that I'll love the 2005 Mustang, but the Civic Hybrid will give me a $1,500 deduction on my taxes and will cut my gas bill in half. I'm still kind of questioning myself but I'm almost positive that if I end up buying a new car I'll get the Mustang. The rental I'm driving now is a Nissan Maxima. I hate it and I don't think the Civic will be that different to me. It will also have less power. I'm totally stressed out about the cost though. I just don't make enough to move out, make car payments, and then in a year and a half I'll have to take on my therapy and medication as well which I don't know how I'm going to do even without the car payment. If I live at home for the next two years I can pay it off in 20-22 months. On of that, I've completely lost control of my food. I go into the grocery store now without any clue as to what I'm there to buy because I'm not willing to eat the two or three things I've been eating for the past month. My body is disgusting (which somehow reminds me that I'm supposed to print out photos of people I think are "thin enough" for therapy tomorrow). Talk about making me feel like shit.
