Kind of a nothing day - which was fine with me.

I'm home and need to ketchup on today's posts.

I was supposed to work concessions tonight for the Seattle International Comedy Competition, but plans changed.

Let me just say FUCK!!

George · « **Reply #184 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:08:10 PM »

Yup...I said it...and this is why:

George · « **Reply #185 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:09:48 PM »

I went to Subway for lunch, and was only there for a little more than a half hour...nothing unusual about that.

George · « **Reply #186 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:09:57 PM »

When I came out to my car, there was glass on the ground on the passenger side and my window had been smashed in!

I was given a bag of audio cassettes tapes and CDs from my friend Shelly to either donate to the library (the CDs...the library won't take cassettes), or keep.

George · « **Reply #188 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:12:33 PM »

I hadn't even had a chance to go through any of the recordings to see what all was there.

George · « **Reply #189 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:13:17 PM »

Anyway, that's what was taken, just the bag on the passenger side seat.

George · « **Reply #190 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:13:54 PM »

FORTUNATELY, that's all that was taken, AND they didn't smash the windshield or the back window.

George · « **Reply #191 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:14:27 PM »

The dealer can fix the side windows in house.

I called Tumwater's non-emergency number and was told to fill out the form online.

George · « **Reply #193 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:18:50 PM »

I did that, and got a case number (there's no way to find out who did this

). I just wanted to make sure that it was documented.

George · « **Reply #194 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:19:36 PM »

I then called my insurance company and gave them the info, and someone will hopefully call me tomorrow.

George · « **Reply #195 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:21:07 PM »

I have a $100 deductible, and the dealer told me that the window (I'm assuming just the window, not including tax and labor) would be around $315-$320 or so.

George · « **Reply #196 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:23:24 PM »

I did let my supervisor and a few other co-workers know what happened, and tell them that I didn't know when I'd be back from "lunch," just that I would be.

George · « **Reply #197 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:24:00 PM »

I was able to drive the car back to my work and finish up a few things, then I went to my sister's to see if I could vacuum out some of the glass.

George · « **Reply #198 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:24:47 PM »

My sister has very long extension cords for a vacuum, and I don't...just the vacuum.

George · « **Reply #199 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:26:50 PM »

I was able to get some of the glass out, but not all of it.

George · « **Reply #200 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:27:27 PM »

Here's one before picture:

And another:

George · « **Reply #202 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:29:42 PM »

It was getting late and I was just too frustrated with not really knowing how to use my sister's vacuum that I decided to go home and see if I could borrow her extension cords and vacuum it with my vacuum in my garage.

George · « **Reply #203 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:31:00 PM »

I had a few garbage bags still in my garage, but I was able to move them out of the way and get my car in my garage.

George · « **Reply #204 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:32:53 PM »

HOWEVER, it's a small one-car garage, and with the stupid wooden shelves that I hadn't taken out yet, there wasn't very much room to even open my car doors, let alone have room to get a vacuum around the car to clean up the glass.

George · « **Reply #205 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:34:20 PM »

So, unless I can get my window fixed tomorrow and have the dealer clean up the rest of the glass (he said hopefully!), I'll clean up the glass on Saturday.

George · « **Reply #206 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:35:16 PM »

My sister is very kindly letting me borrow her car until I can get mine fixed.

George · « **Reply #207 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:36:34 PM »

She works from home, but has tomorrow and all next week off, so she's not in immediate need of it.

George · « **Reply #208 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:37:02 PM »

I would just need it to go to work then my mom's tomorrow, then to usher on Saturday.

George · « **Reply #209 on:** November 17, 2022, 09:38:44 PM »

And the car isn't even six month's old.
