Closing Time

Well, I just spoke to the uninsured driver that hit me back in August, and I made an offer to sign a release for about 40% of the claims total value and she accepted. Dad and I discussed it and we can repair the vehicle ourselves for about that amount and I *have* to have it fixed soon - with the weather changing and all...

She is still protesting her insurances cancellation pre-accident, but I told her if they provide coverage after the fact she can show them the release and the cancelled check and they will have to honor her settlement. Not to mention the fact that there are several estimates of the damage and they are all at $3000. I am just tired of it all and sick of looking at my car not being my car. I mean - I still love it - but I am not as attracted to it.

It is possible that I just need a boyfriend.

Tonight is Smallville and my late day at the office and several different other things as well. I am certain it is someone's birthday. If today is your birthday, well then Happy Birthday! If it isn't, just bookmark this post and then come back to it on the appropriate date.

I'm in a weird mood. I'm listening to Spacehog and I don't know why. I really could not give a clear explanation for how the CD even got in my car - much less why it went into repeat. I don't even know if I like it. I don't even remember *buying* the CD.

suzvoy is writing this WIP (Smallville) called "Tic, Tac, Toe" or something and I usually avoid most WIPs (except for lately) and for some reason I clicked on this last night. I don't know why - I am certain it is Spacehog related - and this WIP blew my mind. Seriously. I am freaked out cause it was proceeding along and nothing was what I thought it was. I thought it was one of those soap opera almost formulaic Lex and Clark almost get together and then there is conflict via a misunderstanding and then fallout and then reconcilliation. And - I kinda like that formula - it relaxes me.

Except she was just fucking with my head. Now I am all freaked out. Also - apparently, now I am reading another WIP. Speaking as someone who will only ever write WIPs and will never ever finish any of them - I fear the WIP. Because I know.

I am not a closer. I am a stringer. Wait - that is not appropriate - I am a stringer-a-longer. Are these baseball terms? This whole Sox winning thing has me flustered and I don't even follow the sport. Strange things are afoot. Even I - a baseball idiot - know this.

I do finish vids. When I can. Right now I have a minute at the end of a first draft vid that has not happened yet and it is for a show I am unspoiled for. I need six new eps and I need them now. I don't care what happens. At this point I will just make it work.

Cause I really should finish something. Sigh. I'll feel better when my car is fixed.
