Drink Anyone?


While we were walking, Tripp was sleeping. While Tripp was sleeping, people were crashing into his car. Some drunk idiot (drank this AM, not last night), didn't stop at the stop sign on the street that merges into our street. He hit our neighbors ditch in front of her house, went airborne, then screeched across our yard and T-boned Tripp's car at 55 mi per hour, per Cayce police.There is major framework problems, and we aren't sure the guy is insured. The only thing that stopped Tripp's truck, was my car. There are just a few scratches on the bumper where he bounced off. Check out the angle it left his car in the driveway. Just to show you how serious Tripp's "waking up" problem is, he never heard the impact! Two neighbors called when it happened, didn't hear it. The drunks' air bag didn't deploy, so he was injured. Left in an ambulance. Tripp never heard it. He finally just woke up as they were towing the other car and noticed all the cops and people in our yard. To top this off, we came to the house after the walk to bring jim my keys and we couldn't start the Nanny van. Alternator dead. Fabulous.....
