Stupid Moment of the Weekend

On Thursday I bought a "new" car. My dad got a new car, and then I bought his Volvo from the dealership, after he traded it in. Thursday I didn't work. My mom drove me to the dealership to pick up the car. I drove it home, then stayed in for the night. Friday I woke up to go to work, and could not find the keys anywhere! Thank goodness I still had my old car, the Buick. So my "new" car stayed parked in front of my house.

I got home, searched the house some more, then got a flashlight and headed out to look in the street and the sidewalk. But, the keys were sitting right in the car, very visible in the passenger's seat. It was 6:30pm at night, I didn't feel like dealing with it at the moment.

Sunday, I called a locksmith. He broke into the car, and I got my keys. I also learned that the car alarm works when it needs to. $145.00, I can now drive my car. Hopefully I'll get reimbursed by my insurance company. Expensive mistake.

*Just got an email back from my insurance company. I do get reimbursed! Yay for State Farm Insurance!
