Car Collision

As much as we have been on an unlucky streak lately, we've been as fortunate as two people can be given unfortunate circumstances. For example, we were recently in a car accident and within a day it was as if it had never happened. Here's why:

1. We were in our rental car
   
2. We were not at fault
3. The other car hit the front left wheel
   
4. We were unharmed
5. The people in the other car were unharmed
   
6. A 2009 Chevy Malibu is a surprisingly sturdy car
   
7. A very nice couple volunteered to be our witnesses
8. We were ten minutes from my parents
9. My step-dad came down to comfort us
10. He knew the police officers at the scene
11. Avis's roadside assistance representative was kind
12. The boyfriend's company is paying for the car
13. My parent's have a hot-tub
14. They drove us home
15. We got a new car the next day

Sure it was definitely scary, and neither of us had ever been in a car crash, but all in all, at most it was a hassle. Seriously, we had to have had the luckiest car accident ever. It's amazing.
