The past month has been an emotional rollercoaster from Hell. I finally got my car back this weekend. Jim and I rode over to Perfect Reflections, who did the body work. The car looks great, and as far as I can see you can’t tell that it was ever damaged! I’m very pleased with their work, and highly recommend them to anyone who needs body or restoration work!
We still haven’t settled with the other insurance company. We’ve had some disagreements over the paperwork, then lawyers were involved, so right now we’re kind of in a holding pattern until we can see a new set of paperwork.
Oh the joy … :roll:
Jim and I have been on each other’s nerves a lot lately and decided to get out for a bit yesterday. We finally saw Ironman — I liked this movie VERY much! Seemed a bit short though, am hoping the DVD release has extras, you know, deleted scenes, and the like. Downey Jr. looked great and I enjoyed the soundtrack. (I’ll probably be buying a copy of it too!)
We also trekked around various parts of Birmingham over the weekend. We had dinner Friday night at Cajun Steamer, and dinner last night at El Carreton. (If you’re ever in the north Jefferson area, look ’em up! VERY tasty Mexican food!!!) We stopped by Best Buy, Jim needed an HDMI cable for the tv upstairs. I perused the Asian films for an old kung fu movie I’ve been trying to find. Having no luck, I decided to check the music aisles … and a good thing too, seeing the small section of Lordi CDs reminded me that I accidentally cracked mine and so I picked up a new copy of The Arockalypse. Even better — it was a special edition! 3 extra tracks (one which is my FAVE Lordi song!) and a DVD of goodies.
Bonus! :mrgreen:
Jim’s watching the race and I’m sitting here looking at the folder full of stuff I bookmarked to post on or about … I think I’ll put ’em off until tomorrow. I’ve been enjoying my “time off” and Jim and I have needed the “together time” to work out various things.
Mental note: I *so* owe Jim’s mom big time for keeping Jessie all this time … we’ve badly needed a “break”!

Hey I Tweeted a response to you last night and then thought – man she may think I’m some weird twitter stalker, so figured I’d better clear it up!
I understand how hard all this is – been there – and it took 2 years to settle the lawsuit we had against the 18 wheeler’s owner that hit us.
Slowly, and I do mean slowly, it gets better.
Most important thing to remember – you are alive.
Oh – it took me 8 years before I would drive down the road where our accident happened and only after they’d widened it and it didn’t look the same.

I watched this interview with GWAR and fell out laughing.
My God! They can make Southern Baptists soil their shorts.
