I think this just turned from a "bird" day into a "statue" day...or maybe it's just Monday.

Was driving out to see Juneau-Brian for lunch earlier today when a couple of very large plow trucks went by. I didn't think anything of it at first, but a moment later I heard a very loud THUD. I thought a rock or something had hit my roof, but everything seemed all right, so I continued on to his house. When I got there and went to look, however, my entire rear windshield crumpled inward.

Well, I called the state, and after getting redirected about six times finally found the right person to talk to. She said that I should get a couple of quotes from dealers here in town and she'd see about verifying that there were, in fact, crews working in the area at that time and whatnot. So I'm going to call her back tomorrow with the quotes I got ($680 and $556). Meantime, I've got to figure out some option aside from plastic bags and duct tape - the snow all over everything means the duct tape won't stick, so when I tried it, I ended up with half my makeshift windscreen flapping behind me.

I really hope the state pays for this, because there's no way in hell I've got the $600. Not with an apartment deposit to save for.

And to top it all off, the tip of my finger won't stop bleeding where I cut it on the glass...

grr... if the lady is being cooperative that's a good sign, maybe this happens a lot. Any clue what actually caused your window to crumple in?

*tosses you a string of beads*

Haven't you seen enough of my tits for one lifetime? =P=)

I don't think anything in particular caused it to crumple in - likely just the weakened glass + stress from starting/stopping. I hadn't even realized it had been hit until I went out to make sure my roof hadn't been dented and the entire thing went *phbbt*...

Am going to call her back today, and will keep everyone posted.

if you give someone beads, it's a gift with no need to flash. If someone flashes you, that's an obligation to pass them some beads.

Ah, okay, now I get it. So when do I get to see your tits? =D

Well, not having some of my own I tried to order some from Missouri, but they got lost in the mail, and now nobody seems to have any proof of the order in hardcopy... so im out my money, and still dont have a pair of tits.

It's just as well. Tit owners tend to like fowl things. I'm too fond of puns, I really am.
