I'm not certain if IJAC, my car, is totaled. However, IJAC isn't looking good. About 6:35 PM tonight, Nicki and I were in a car accident. We're at home now. I won't get into details about it, other than I fear my car is totaled. We did see the doctor. I rode in ambulance as a result, for precautionary's sake. I happened to have my camera with me, as we were going to go see the live Nativity scene again. I was going to take pictures of it. Instead, I have pictures of the accident scene and vehicles. I called my insurance company as soon as I got home. Now, it's wait and see about what's next. If my car is totaled, I'm going to miss it. I loved my car. It was perfect for me. I can't afford a new car at the moment.

At least this isn't my mother dying! Thankfully, angels, like my mother, were with us. And while I did cry about it in the hospital and in the car before I was moved, I mainly cracked jokes about various things.

I did take my car out this afternoon and went out to the Skidaway Institute of Oceanography. Out there, the University of Georgia has its Marine Education Center & Aquarium. It's a nice place to get lost for a while. I felt like a Junior Girl Scout while out there. Besides the exhibits, there is a nature trail. They need volunteers, so maybe this summer I'll help out. I still plan on working the Mysterious Santa Project.

The car accident was the big thing for the day. I so wished I could have told the should-have-happened story of Nicki and me having a small night on the town.
