lent

it's difficult to believe that Lent is already upon us. i feel like it was just yesterday.

i have decided to...
~give up eating out again (it's like my nemesis although i bring it upon myself)
~give up caffeine
~give up blatant sugar (cookies, ice cream, candy, etc.)
~make and follow a budget ('cause hey, i ain't rich)

i got in my "last" stuff today though... ate with chris at wahoos for lunch and then had two very sugary donuts from Oh Those Donuts in Costa Mesa. chris pointed out that it's been 2 months since we've had lunch but then one month either one or both of us was out of town so that doesn't count. no matter, it was just nice to hangout even though i'm sure i talked his ear off.

the old lady's insurance adjuster left me a message about a letter of comparative negligence, meaning, the old lady obviously changed her story and made it seem like neither of us was at fault. wrong! i spoke with my adjuster and she said to call AAA back and not accept the comparative negligence because if you look at the damage on the vehicles, there is no way the story is what she said. the damage on my car is on the far left bumper while hers is in the middle of her bumper. if AAA does not accept full liability they will only pay a percentage of the cost to fix it which sucks. the damage is probably less than $500 so i would have to pay out of pocket since it's less than my deductible. i'd also have to ask a favor of whomever to get a ride to and from work the day it's repaired because my insurance doesn't allow rental cars on claims less than the amount of the deductible, nevermind the fact that i've been paying for that "extra" option of $30 a day for a rental car. the hassles of any accident, no matter how minor, are completely ridiculous.
