yuuagoI got a call from the police last night. Since the person whose car I dented is making a claim over $2000, I needed to fill out a police report.
I'd been kind of dreading this, but the officer I spoke to was very polite and straightforward, and she sent me a form to fill out digitally, so I didn't have to go to the station.
Today I told my mom about the whole thing, because it was eating away at me and I needed to talk to somebody about it. Honestly, I was more scared about telling my parents than I was about getting a call from the cops. Which probably says something about my relationship with my parents. But she was very understanding about this, and reassured me that this kind of stuff happens all the time. This kind of stuff has happened to her, and my dad, and my brother, and yeah it's a bummer that my insurance is going to go up but that's how it goes, and "No, you're not going to lose your license and have to get a bicycle so you can get around".
Anyway, I feel a lot better now. I mean, I still feel kind of unsettled and stressed, not to mention incredibly embarrassed, but I don't feel like I'm going to have a heart attack or like I'll keel over and die or anything.
I'm definitely going to make sure to not park anywhere near anybody else for quite a while, though....
