Nothing awful, but probably will be lots of $$$ to fix.  A guy rear-ended me at a stoplight.  It was totally his fault and he was given a ticket, but he was super gracious and apologetic about it and seemed like a nice guy.  Hopefully, he&#8217;s a nice guy with good insurance.  He was in a dualie (did I spell that right?) pickup truck with a big trailer attached, so it felt like I was being hit by a Mack truck.  Luckily, I totally didn&#8217;t see it coming, so didn&#8217;t have time to &#8220;tense up&#8221; beforehand.  Hopefully that will mean I won&#8217;t be as sore tomorrow, but I already have a sore, stiff neck and a bad headache in my forehead area.  I am trying very hard to NOT think about the fact that my forehead probably hurts because my brain slammed against the front of my skull upon impact.  <Shudder.>  I am VERY happy that I didn&#8217;t have the kids in the car with me (I was on my way to pick up Girl from volleyball camp).<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I&#8217;m OK and so were the three guys in the other car (a remodeling crew).  Everyone had on seatbelts, so it will likely (hopefully) just be a matter of fixing the cars.  His truck was pretty smashed:  the hood was crumpled up and the brushguard on the front was pretty damaged.  The frame is bent on my car and the bumper is hosed, so I&#8217;m sure that it will be quite costly to fix.  I&#8217;ve been toying with the idea of a new car, anyway, so I may just get it fixed and then start looking for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lexus.com\/models\/RXh\/?s_ocid=AllModels_RXh_Display_Info\">other options<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Thank goodness I had already prepared tonight&#8217;s dinner &#8211; it just needs to bake for 45 minutes while I sit on the couch and let my Aleve kick in.
