usually don't get that much snow in Texas, especially not around here.
It took me 20 minutes to get my car in the garage... anybody have startup problems? Or are we waiting until tomorrow morning to start that lol.

I'm so sorry man.. I know how you feel I got hit by a GMC sierra in my whitewater pearl a few months ago.. it was awful
did she accept full responsibility? Still.. thats gonna be a pain in the *** ..
I hate the procedures.. always ends up taking a month.

Lol Ahad, yeah it took me seven attempts yesterday morning to get my car back into the garage after I decided that 1/4 way to work that there was no way I was going to actually make it with the hills and turns on the route, not to mention that I couldnt even get to those because traffic wasnt moving. Kinda wish I knew of a nice wide open parking lot to play in though.

I ended up putting cardboard all over my drive way.. getting my 8 up into the garage... moving the cardboard.. and then when i FINALLY got my car in.. I was walking into the door and literally slipped and fell off ice that came off my car.
