i hate the law

hello kids,
before i begin i would like to apologize for previous posts wherein i cried and expressed myself all over the internet. that is not what online journals are for...they are not for emotions. that what emo is for...so i will spare you the intense whining i have been involved in and go back to doing what i do best: complaining about the stupid and arbitrary...

like insurance claims for example...

on the weekend i got into a little fender bender. no one was hurt and louise and i were able to continue along on our tattoo shopping trip but it's become a HUGE pain in my ass...ok, ok, it probably should be a huge pain in my ass, afterall i was at fault and i have now discovered that it's going to be a little expensive...

whatever...the reason that i hate the law is because of all the redtape hoop jumping i have to do.
1) hit someone
2) go to the police station and get treated like a criminal again...
3) go home and cry
4) call insurance company and get treated like a stupid criminal again...
5) talk to insurance adjuster and not understand a word they say
6) wait for a four hour window for the estimator to come...he comes 5 minutes after you could have gone for lunch, as a result you miss dim sum...fuck!
7) wait for the body shop to call you
8) schedule an appointment with the body shop after they tell you that your shitty ass insurance company will only cover 60% of your bumper repair
9) scrounge together $700 and decide that there is no way you'll be able to go to coachella this year...damn car!

so that's why i hate the law...i am in stage 9 and it's hard kids...$700 is a lot of cash-o-la! fuck! fortunately, the front bumper damage is my sister's fault so she's paying $350...now i am only scrounging $350...not too shabby...still can't go to coachella though...

so, i hate the law...they treat like a criminal just because you got in a ACCIDENT and then they stick needles in your eyes and take all your money. fuck!
