Bye-Bye Truck!



So, Randy wrecked the truck. Not the red truck (MY truck), but the white money-pit that he has been working on FOREVER. Somehow, in a relatively empty parking lot, he hit the only concrete post/light pole in sight. He wasn't trying to avoid hitting a person or another car, or even an animal...he just ran into it. I guess he got distracted by the empty lot and the HUGE choice of parking spaces (LOL). To be fair, he had been studying very hard for Part II board exams which means his brain was pretty much full of everything but the knowledge of how to park. He is sad...I am not, except now we need to spend more $$ getting another vehicle. The truck actually looks pretty good, except a big dent on the driver's side. It doesn't look totaled, but it is a total loss according to the insurance company...and it pretty much can't be driven in a straight line, if at all. So, bye-bye truck...thanks for everything

Good riddance to money-pits! Our stupid computer broke down and so we bought a new one that should never have problems! If it does I will be very upset. Anyway, Caius and I will be in Iowa City April 29 - May 6. We would love to see you!

That was so fun to browse through your blog! I'm glad it sounds like you miss Iowa City. Iowa city misses you! How's the remodeling coming along? You guys are so ambitious. You need to post some before and after pictures. How exciting that you are down to one year left with school. Good luck finishing up and deciding where to go. Lots of big decisions. Glad Randy was okay in his parking lot crash. Poor guy. Hope you find a good afordable replacement. Hope I get a chance to see you soon! Take care!!!

sounds like someone has been studying too much...
Make sure you get something pretty...and economical...and gas friendly. Like an accord or something. Ooo...you should get a COUPE! I wish I had a coupe...
