It was a one-shot email that I copied and pasted. I knew I wouldn't want to write that much detail again, so I figured I'd copy and paste. It was like a block party out there at 3:30am.. neighbors who I had never met were now my best friends! It was nice, considering I had only talked to Rod (neighbor who was referred to as "the toothless neighbor who is always drinking beer on the front porch")once, and never talked to Dave (neighbor who was referred to as "The Crazy Birdman", because he lives with sounds like 20 Parrots and Parakeets, and you can usually here then chirping and "cawww"-ing 9 or so hours out of the day). Luckily, the one gate door that the truck hit would probably only cost $600-$700 to fix, and I'm hoping someone's insurance pays for it. I don't want to make a homeowners ins. claim because we have a $500 deductible, and we don't want the monthly payment to go up either.

Alaska - talk about butterfly bandages... when I was, like, 20 or 21, I slipped knee first into a covered parking steel post which just happened to have a sharp piece of metal sticking out of it, oh (you guessed it), knee high! It went through my pants and through the skin, to the kneecap. I didn't have insurance at the time, so I hobbled upstairs to my apartment and called an ex-girlfriend to come over. I had a full leg splint from highschool sports, put that on, and we went to the grocery store. I patched that baby up with Neosporin and butterfly bandages and, although it isn't the prettiest scar in the world, it didn't get infected, and it works as well as it did before!
