update to my non-mm weekend

My car got rear-ended this weekend. Body shop just called. There is over $9000 of damage. My car is a 99 honda accord, so there is no way the insurance company will fix it. Now I guess I need to start looking for a new (used car).

that sucks.

will you get anything from the insurance company? did you get the info for the person who hit you?

[thinklikeajellyfish]

yes and yes. My insurance company (well, I guess the other driver's insurance company) will reimburse me for the value of the car, but I'm sure it won't be much. I will find out by the end of the week. I'm super bummed because the car only had 120,000 miles on it and my family has owned it since it was brand new, so I know the service history. I'm nervous buying a used car not knowing the full history, but that's what we will have to do.
