For the first time in almost four years of living here, I hit a deer....not particularly hard but killed none the less. Well, I brought my car into the shop, and there was $5K worth of damage!! Of course, I have insurance but the darn thing cost me my deductible and I wasn't sure what that was set at nevermind the hassle of being without my car while it was getting fixed. Boy, was I pissed. I was driving slow, eyes on the road and the deer just have no concept for bright lights and the sound of a 2K pound box of crushing metal heading towards them. Well, the next day, I was passing by the very spot I hit the bastard. While becoming more enraged because I was on the phone with my insurance agent who was giving me the news about my $500 deductible, I spotted the carcas in the road. All the feelings of "this accident is going to cost me" bubbled up and I was so pissed I swerved hard into the shoulder lane and ran over the deer again!
