One nice warm summer day a few weeks after I got married I was driving home from my beloved job.  Okay- the job was not beloved.  But, actually looking back on that job it wasn’t as bad as I thought it was at the time.  I had a good friend there who I had a lot of fun with.  Anyhoo- that is not what this story it about.  I was driving home after a long hard day when the traffic in front of my stopped.  The guy behind me?  He did not stop.  He hit the back of my car and actually lifted it up in the air causing damage to my bumper and underneath the back of my car.

Fortunately no one was seriously hurt.  I had an injury that I thought was to my back- that is where it hurt.  But it turned out that the injury was actually in my pelvis, which made my back hurt.   That wasn’t figured out until several months later.  My car did have some damage and it sure could have used some new auto accessories.

I was actually able to get several more good years out of that car.  And then I sold it and the next owner still has it as far as I know.  I’m still kicking too… so we both survived.
