carless in the city

i've recently discovered something about myself... i'm spoiled. car spoiled that is.

there was a time that i had no problem getting up and getting on the train or a bus to get around. sometimes i would even take the train and a few buses to get where i had to go. but since i met my husband 5 years ago i have hardly taken the train. he's always had a car and recently i started driving as well.

on wednesday i was driving to work and a car hit me from behind. it wasn't really a big deal i didn't get hurt but there was damage to the car. enough that we won't have a car for 3 weeks. my first thought instead of how much our deductible was going to be was.. damn it now i have to take the train for 3 weeks. that's what i was angry about. i didnt' even want to talk to the guy who hit me cuz all i wanted to do was scream at him... i have to TAKE THE TRAIN!!!

so during these three weeks i'll be feeling more sorry for myself than usual... arg.
