Although I get the second part of your story. I'm going to have to blog about the time I got mad at another car, wrote something with my finger in the dust on the car, and then by the time I got home proceeded to call all my lawyer friends to find out whether I had committed any crimes and whether they'd be able to retrieve my finger prints off of the car.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05220334396409452136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897882981515430685.post-17640377451474338172011-11-18T04:41:04.775+11:002011-11-18T04:41:04.775+11:00I get the "You just do what you need to do to...I get the "You just do what you need to do to feel better" thing from mine as well.

But if I were truly Aussie, I'd have said "carpark" instead of "parking lot". ;)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07969357513275063157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897882981515430685.post-3374284204730062712011-11-17T18:24:53.242+11:002011-11-17T18:24:53.242+11:00I laughed aloud at this post.

If we needed to explain you to aliens, we could engrave this story onto a gold LP and send it into deep space.<br /><br />Me, if there was no dent, I would have rubbed the paint off with my thumb and driven away. I figure that these are the hazards of parking. You weren't being negligent, and they are driving their car out in the world near other cars. It happens! But you were always the nice one.<br /><br />I love Jason's line too. I know I've heard him say that.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06517252487552392654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897882981515430685.post-50288680867603176772011-11-17T10:34:10.524+11:002011-11-17T10:34:10.524+11:00I loved this post!

I'm the exact same way (except in no way would I have unbuckled an already buckled baby in the car seat...that would've been my motivation to just drive away). But, my conscious is large and it would have bothered me to no end. So, good on you for dealing w/ it so you could rest easy. However, the last part about the picture was the LOL moment...I assume Jason just shook his head?

Oh, wait. ;)<br /><br />I think though, what unfortunately motivates me often is also worrying about how things look, or what people would think, or what possible consequences might befall me. It's THAT part of my brain I'd like to turn off sometimes. :)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07969357513275063157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897882981515430685.post-46169929473583161132011-11-16T23:33:56.026+11:002011-11-16T23:33:56.026+11:00Amy, you are a fundamentally nice and thoughtful p...Amy, you are a fundamentally nice and thoughtful person. You take others' feelings and viewpoints into consideration as you go about your life. That's a good thing! It's what makes society hum along (mostly). I also think you're a realist as seen in your driving back to take a picture of the car door. That's a good combination. Your life is a witness.delainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01519073646760104147noreply@blogger.com
