I was supposed to go to Breakfast with Santa yesterday. Great fun! I was very excited about it. When mommy told me what we were going to do, I literally started jumping up and down! We went to drop mommy's car off for routine service at the Toyota dealership, then we were going to head over to breakfast in daddy's car -- and some jerk decided he needed to turn left instead of going right, and -- without bothering to look behind him -- put his big truck into reverse and just backed up his LA Party Rents truck into us, crushing the front of daddy's car!! What the heck, man?!
I don't drive, but I have noticed that when people are stopped at red lights, they do not tend to put their trucks in reverse and back into small cars. Apparently this guy didn't get the memo. Ack!
I was REALLY mad. Forget the car - what about my breakfast with Santa?! Do you think these opportunities arise out of nowhere?! Santa is a busy guy -- especially around the holidays! He has a lot of work to do in preparation for Christmas, or a lot of little boys and girls will be disappointed. It's not like he has time for breakfast all the time. And this guy messed with my plans! Poop on him!
Mommy was all over it. She had the guy to describe the incident in his own words and admit fault on video before his company and the insurance carrier had a chance to put pressure on him to change his story. If I have my way, this guy will pay for the car repairs, car rental AND set up a breakfast for me with Santa! I don't even care if that jolly red-suited man comes to our house to join us for breakfast -- I'm having my breakfast with Santa, darn it!! LA Party Rents, I'm warning you!!
