I cant get ahead anymore.....

update... with the truck

i was wrong the fender is fine. when the door jerked so hard back the inner door frame bent all the hell the outer door skin popped off the inner and is all screwed up.. my dad has the fender propped out so i can open the door. looks like i need a whole new door now just f-ing wonderful..

Well we have had a HIGH wind advisory all day. it has been windy as hell way more extreme then normal. well after dinner i head back to my GF house i park... and well i go to open the door and its ripped out of my hands like someone flung it, the door flung so hard because of the wind it bashed it past where its supposed to bend. the driver side fender is bent in about 1/4" my door is moved forward about 1/4" the door is into the fender, and hanging odd...

needless to say it looks like the A piller might be bent.....



oh and i file the summons papers for taking that ***** to court about my accident on Monday....



OH OH and the best kicker of all.. my work announced that they will be laying people off... so i might not have a job in a few days...

that sucks, at least i had someone to blame when he decided to drive off with my door, and fold it almost completely back onto the fender. i love the windnoise when driving on the highway, and cant forget the leaks when wet.

Bad luck always seems to come in groups, and like a chain reaction. One thing just sets off the next.
Scheiss happens. Just dont let it drag you down.

Good Luck man. I know how it feels when things go bad, just never seems to get back right. I will keep you in my thoughts when I am ready to kick the **** out of a stupid customer.

Things will get better trust me
