My appointment is at 4pm. I am extremely nervous about it. More stressed about this then having an MRI, surgery, EMG, EEG, blood test, or stitches in my thumb with no anesthetic.
I am teetering on the brink I feel. Thankfully, my Mother just turned off the dumbass court tv crap programs and left here for awhile.
I can empathize with you on the door ding. I had a newer flawless car once when my first child was born 23 years ago. I waxed it every weekend. Changed the oil every 3 months.
ALWAYS parked away from every one, at the back of parking lots and walked further to the door.
My then wife, didn't function like that. She was a "closer parking space" searcher. Would drive up and down the isles looking. She found one, and squeezed the car into it. I wasn't with her.
Sure enough. She returned and There was my ding!! I too was mentally and physically sick about it. I never forgot about it either and I always looked at it afterwards.
I don't know that I ever forgave her for that, it was partly her own fault for her decision to park in between people. Risky. Other people don't care. I wouldn't do that to another car.
Now, I just drive pieces of shit that have dents and dings everywhere so I wouldn't even notice anything new..junky cars.
This event may bother you for awhile, until you choose how to view it a different way as we can choose our own attitudes about circumstances beyond our own control..so they say.
Hope your day gets better friend...
