BECKY VS SMUD

OK so i left my house at 130 yesterday heading for Walgreen's. didnt even get a half a mile down the road when my jeep jerked to the right ( felt like a blow out ) so i countered and pulled the wheel but I didn't have enough time to react. i hit a smud pole dead center to my jeep. took out a power line that landed on my jeep. air bags deployed. i crawl out ( realize im in the middle of grant line rd ) crawl to the side of the road. i look over to see a live power line under my jeep and one on top of my jeep 6 inches from where my head was. some lady called 911 and another guy got my phone out of the jeep. i call rob. fire department gets there blocks the road off ( including rob doesn't let him by ) ambulance gets there puts me on a gearny i call rob, hes following me. they go code 3 (lights and speeding ) cuz i cant breathe my ribs are broke stabbing my lungs, we get to kaiser south and i have 12 people working on me at once and no one is listening to me ( like a bad movie ) 20 minutes later they let rob in the room and my mom and kids are in the waiting room already. 8 hours later i left with cracked and dislodged floating ribs. HORRIBLE PAIN and a lot of freakin whiplash.

so the funny part is i hate smud. they gave me a 500$ smud bill for 3 months in a row now and i haven't said a nice word about them lately. so what do i do??? hit their power line and make them work on it. they were still working on it when i got home last night. the power went out all the way to my house. point for me..............

i will know in the next 3 days what happens to the jeep. but rob and the tow truck guy say its gone. coils got bent, harmonic balancer is broken in half, radiator is crushed into the engine, cranks busted, both airbags deployed, front grill bumper and lights are sitting behind the jeep right now, windshield is busted from the body twist and the body is bent above both front doors. tow truck driver said CHP thought i hit the down power line and it pulled me into the pole.

pictures will be up soon : (

Wow. Girl I'm so glad you're okay.

Someone I was talking to (I think it was Matt's mom) guessed maybe your tie rod broke - that would jerk ya to the right.

Who knows. We could speculate all day long. I'm anxious to hear whether or not they find out why it happened.

I'm prayin for ya. Again, please let me know if there's any way I can help you out, okay?

well whatever it was I sure as hell didn't see it coming........ poor jeep. my rib cage isn't too happy about it either
