My Car, Disabled

About two weeks ago, my windshield was wacked with a flying rock while I was scooting around I495 to work. I didn't think much of it at the moment, but later that day I got a good look at the ding and the spreading cracks. [livejournal.com profile] kent4str urged me to get the windshield replaced before winter freeze/thaw cycles made it worse.

I called our insurance company who hooked me up with a glass replacement firm who does house calls. The appointment time came & went with no replacement in sight. Apparently, there was some sort of data entry error which prevented the call from being dispatched. Yeah, whatever.

My schedule was a nightmare last week so I didn't get a chance to reschedule until Friday. That appointment was this afternoon. [livejournal.com profile] cuyahogarvr, because he loves me so, cancelled his afternoon plans so he could be here for the replacement work.

The replacement guys came & went: apparently, the windshield they brought wasn't the right type for my car. Yeah, right. They'll be back tomorrow and are waiving the $100 deductible for [livejournal.com profile] cuyahogarvr's troubles.

Here's what my car currently looks like (sigh):
