Its 1am here and im bored so I figured I would post this...
Earlier today my dad drops by the house waiting in his car outside, calls my cell phone from the driveway saying "get dressed and come out side", he wouldnt really tell me whats going on after I asked him a few times so I'm thinking I fucked up and I'm in some sort of trouble or something lol. Anyways I hop outside and he explains to me that my mom was in a pretty bad wreck and we had to go to the hospital. Of course my first question is she ok, and he just explained to me that he doesnt know much but she should be ok, shes getting x-rays while we were on the way driving over.
To make a long story shorter we get there and everything is ok for the most part, she has some bruises and scrapes, and somehow she got burns on her wrist where her watch was (she doesnt know exactly but it may have been from the seatbelt pulling on her or somehow the airbag). She was in a neck brace when we got there but that was only for precaution and they took it off before she was released.
She was driving down the street and got hit by a huge dump truck who was turning right on an intersection (goddamn they need to put a light there). She tried to drive out of the way but it was a little too late as he kept going. State trooper said it seemed to be the truck drivers fault by the skid marks on the road, so I think he got a ticket but im not sure on the specifics. Anyways they are paying for all the damages.
As for the car, pretty much totaled. As you can imagine a dump druck even going slow is like hitting a brick wall. We drove by the towing place to get the rest of her stuff left in her car...didnt look too great (oddly enough, for the most part the interior was in pretty good condition). Heres some pictures. (really sorry about the pictures but I think I have the worse camera phone on the planet, either that or the sun was really wanting to fuck up the pictures)...anyways...
*again, sorry about the horrible pictures, but I guess you get the idea.
I think shes supposed to get a rental before everything is worked out, she drives a manual and says shes wanting an automatic now. Guess shes getting old I guess.
*plus side to this story (besides my mom being ok), is that i just checked the NC lottery website and my dad just won the pick 3 lottery. I think he gets like $290, but I suppose thats better than nothing. Hes sleep now I guess but I'll call him in the morning and let him know the good news.
