everything for a reason....

I crashed my car today

but i'm not all that pissed off, see this is the story..

My 7 has been sitting at the shop for like 4 months now, waiting for my boss to pull the frame so that I can paint it, I get all sorts of excuses from him, and for the most part they're legitimate( i have to give him credit though, he's real busy, and he's still giving me the hookup on stuff). anyway, he said we could have it done and painted by tuesday, and geuss what... didn't happen
anyway, im driving around tonight(tuesday) with a bunch of my friends in my beater(91 grand am), and a deer runs out in front of me. It had been raining so I lost control and hit a guard rail, fucked up my whole drivers side! car is still driveable(thank god for that, or at least my mad driving skillz )

but in the end I'm just so glad it
wasn't my 7!!

good to hear you're ok. And that's one less Grand _____ on the road.. I get so sick of seeing Grand Prix's and Grand Am's all over the place.. everyone and their grandmother owns one around here in Michigan.
