Cub foods parking lot

So, last night H and I were on our way home from Cub foods and by "on our way" I mean safely buckled up and slowly backing out of our parking spot, slowly as in 0 mph, when SLAM!!!! You got it, somehow I'd backed up into a car heading up the aisle. I say somehow because, I was very carefully backing out because of all the kids in the parking lot at that time. I'd just looked over my right shoulder and turned to look over my left shoulder and in an instant there she was!

I, personally, think she was racing down the aisle and not paying attention because later when I asked her why she didn't honk she replied, "I didn't see you". Which is not possible because I was slowly backing out and was two feet beyond the cars on either side of me. She just plain wasn't paying attention. And then she decided to be a jerk about it even after I'd given her ALL my info minus SS# and birthday AND started the filing of my claim on the after hours service. AND H had started crying by now and she still didn't want me to leave. Her car has two little dents in the passenger side doors, it's not like I'd totaled it!!!

Anyway, I finally told her I was leaving, she has all my info and if she needs anything else she can call my insurance company. To which she replied, "Well, I want them to know that you backed out into me". And I said, "Well, I think that's pretty obvious, it couldn't have happened any other way" (meaning someone picking up the rear end of the car and smashing it into a 'T' formation with my tail end.) Yep, that only happens in cartoons my friends!

Anyway, I left and went home after 20 minutes of being harassed and that is how my pretty good day turned poopy for a while...cuz then my mom came over and it was great from there.
