so...ive been waiting for someone to call me from the insurance ppl but no one has called my house. Someone was supposed to call me today to set up a meeting to pretty much hand over my title and i guess sign things and then for them to give me a check. I guess they have til probably 4 so who knows, and after all, it is only a call to set up stuff.
In other news, i've found the new car i want. I've known for a while the make, which is mazda, and kind of the model, the mazda3, buuut as to what trim is pretty hard to decide. i might still be uncertain because im going back and for the i touring and the s sport. i guess ill have to actually check them out either way when we go. crunching numbers isnt very much fun. ive compared the cars to other makes like ford cuz i really like the ford fusion, but the fusion starts out at a higher price already so i dont wanna do that. ive even compared to the mitsubishi lancer which i know someone that has that so i dont wanna look like im copying and they are pretty equally priced but who knows. all in time.
well poop. so insurance called me. they actually ended up going out to the tow place to look at it and did an estimate on it. annnnd the guy said that in the state of maryland with the damage that was done, they would consider it a total loss. (i guess cuz the repair is almost as much as the car is worth) He gave me the estimate of 3600 dollars for the repairs but he said thats just from what he could tell, and doesnt know if there is internal damage i guess to like motor related things under the hood. So he gave me two very appealing options, sad but appealing. He said i could give up the car and they would pay me almost 4900 dollars and so i would have money, but no car. The other option was keep the car and get less money, which they would give me about 4200 dollars for it. Which that cuts really close to the "estimate" of the car which im sure will probably go over. annnd i need to get it completely fixed and inspected within 3 months. so i just realized that would be even more money probably with getting it fixed and paying for all the re-inspections the car would need. Very tough decision to make though :(
also, whichever decision i choose, i will get a like 350 dollar check on top of whatever because of the accident i had a wal-mart since that happened prior to the deer accident because that was the estimated repair for the bumper i guess. sooo yeah. decisions decisions.
so, along my way to work this morning i ran into a deer. or rather really, the deer ran into me. it hit the front left side area of my car where the wheel well is. and the force was great enough to kinda move things around where my driver side door wont open unless you push really hard cuz it hits the metal from the front of the car, my left light might have caved in i think and my right one is a bit popped out. so tomorrow i have to figure out how to get it home from the tow lot so that some inspector guy can look at my car to give me an estimate, he will supposedly write me a check and i can get it fixed. i dunno how smoothly that will really go. i called insurance and all and gave them my first claim about the walmart incident, and then he was like any other questions, i was like yeahhhh id like to report another accident for the same car for this morning. and he was like oh many, really? sooo yeah. im carless for a while. the allstate guy is supposed to come between tomorrow and friday.
so yay, two wonderful car incidences within 10 hours of each other.
couple quick things. 1) Harry potter was fantastic! everyone go out and watch it. ill be re-watching it in the near future i think.
2) i emailed the job i interviewed for to see whats up and they said no decision has been made yet and they would do it after the holiday. soo thats still good i guess but ive decided i wont be heartbroken cuz it is far away for me so ill just keep looking.
3) i got a 45 dollar royal canin cat food bag (expensive and pretty good food in general) for only 4 dollars at my work. things were on super clearance cuz we arent carrying that in anymore. a lot of other cat food bags were between 1.20-12 dollars. I decided to be nice and i bought a 3.5 pound bag that cost 1.20 and some cat food cans that were like 10 cents each and donated it to our food drive we do.
4) i also bought some things to get ready for my gecko. i got his water dish, meal worm bowl, and hide-away house thing. ill have to take a picture once i get everything set up on friday.
im getting excited! and now i have off for wed and thurs. so it shall be a good break. Hope everyone has a great turkey day!
ALSO: if anyone is interested...all reptiles and birds are going to be 50% off on friday at petco all day long!
ive been awake since 6 am on a sunday....and havent gone back to sleep. i guess it is thanks to all that sleeping that i did from like 8pm last night. xD and i dont have to work until 2 o clock. i havent done n e thing remotely productive. ive just watched things on hulu. when i got up earlier my balance was off, but i think it was cuz i was just getting out of bed so ill have to see later on today whether or not im actually better.
ive been getting dizzy spells for most of the day, especially if i look up or move down and up. i dunno what it is. i figured maybe it was cuz i hadnt eaten so i actually took a bit of a lunch break today at work. it didnt really help. i even ate dinner when i got home and i ended up laying down and watching a movie and fell asleep halfway through if that. when it ended i woke up and was so confused. i actually tried turning the volume down with my cell phone's volume buttons and was getting frustrated because it wasnt working. i tried for like a minute. then i just decided i would do it manually and so i just realized what i was trying to do xD. i then just watched community on hulu and walked to the bathroom to get ready for bed and am not much better. i guess ill go to sleep now and see how i feel tomorrow.
