My Kingdom for a Horse

A quick update on why I’ve been so quiet the last week or so, and then we should be back to our regularly scheduled sexiness soon.

May has really sucked for me. I had two car accidents in one month. The first being a textbook fender bender and the second being slightly more severe, but still only causing external damage. Those were pretty stressful events for me, and being depressed means that those sort of bumps along the way are hard to cope with.

Then I was was on my way to my home town to see my parents, get the car serviced and the damage assessed when the engine seized up and died. I’ve been pretty worried that replacing the engine was going to put me in some serious debt, and have been stressing about money for the last week. Well I got my car back on Wednesday, and maxed out my credit card to put a down payment on the repairs.

I got good news today when I found out that the insurance coverage for the body damage will be enough to cover the engine replacement. So I’m out of the tunnel financially and after all the stress the only thing I have left to deal with is the body damage that I won’t be able to get fixed in the foreseeable future.

But my car runs, I’m not bankrupt and I didn’t lose any limbs. So I’m pretty sure I’m going to be alright.

I’m doing good, not quite this good, but good nonetheless.
