Monday Morning Fun…

Category: MiscPhil @ 7:54 am

It’s 6AM, I am on my way to work, it is a beautiful fall Monday morning. I’m cruising down Route 7, flying along with all of the other early birds, listening to the Sports Junkies,  and they my luck changes…  I swear he was almost standing there, stupid deer!  He might have been walking into the road, but who knows, it was pitch black at that time of the day. I kind of glanced off to my right and I saw his glowing gold eye right there in front of me… Pretty freaky to hit a deer with a Miata! All I know is there were cars all around me, so I did not have any way of missing him. When I hit it, the car actually went sideways. I did this swervy little maneuver and was able to recover.  My legs were I little shaky, it scared the crap out of me!  It does not look that bad in the picture, but the hood will not open and my car is now a cyclops! That stupid deer went down the whole side of the car,  the door and front an real panels are all creased!

The thing I don’t understand, why me?  This is actually the 4th deer that I have hit (plus several other close calls)! The first one basically totaled my car; the car was un-drivable after t-boning it. The next two were just side swipes, just taking of my mirrors for fun! One was kind of funny, it was a huge deer that actually ran into me when I was driving thru Round Hill! Put a nice dent in my door!

Unfortunately, the car does not want to turn to the right anymore, it makes some pretty bad noises… I need to crawl under it and pull out some fiberglass.  Hopefully the insurance company will be friendly!
