"Let's go to Snowflake." I said to my wife at 8:30 on a Sunday night as we were leaving Scooter's Pub near Rainbow and 215.
"It's not that far." I said. We were only 5 minutes from home and could've just easily had dessert there but my Ex-Straw-Binary was calling me.
"They should just leave the condensed milk on the tables like restaurants leave ketchup bottles." I said as we were at the stop light on Twain and Rainbow
BLAM!! The driver behind me failed to notice both the red light AND a freakin car in front of him. We pull over to the side and he's all apologetic saying he's on his way to work. The damage to my bumper wasn't terrible but it was definitely noticeable. I proposed we leave the insurance companies out of this and that he pay straight up for the damage. He agreed.
My go to mechanics, Japanese Car Service, recommended I go to Bumpermedic. They quoted me $350. I actually had a coupon for $25 off. I couldn't believe I was helping the guy who hit me save money! I dropped off my car at 8am the next day and it was ready by 4pm. It looked brand spanking new like nothing happened which was all I wanted.
NOTE: They ALWAYS take an hour lunch from noon to 1pm so don't go during those times or you'll just be tugging at a locked door.
