Remember not too long ago when I was debating the merits of buying versus leasing a new car?

Well, as Murphy’s Law typically works, I got into a fender bender this past weekend.

(Note: the picture angle actually looks less serious than it is; my back end is pretty crushed as is the driver’s side passenger door)

Fortunately I’m ok — I was hit from behind at a stop sign; the other guy admitted full responsibility to me and the police officer on the scene, so hopefully this won’t be too challenging to resolve.

But it sure put a “dent” (haha) in my weekend, and my Civic’s tush is smushed!! I’ll be bringing it to the body shop later this week, so we’ll see what the damage is and how much of it the guy’s insurance will cover.

I didn’t get to go outlet shopping as planned Sat. afternoon — but did get to see The Proposal with a friend — loved it!

Needless to say, blogging just hasn’t been a top priority the past few days and so I had nothing prepared for today. It’s my lunch break now, and I just wanted to say hi and that I hope you all had a safe, happy and healthy weekend!

Stay tuned for a review of You’d Be So Pretty If … tomorrow or Wednesday!
