Bad Luck

So 2 weeks ago Kaleb, Jazelle and I decided to drive down to Santa Monica to visit and have lunch with Jason. It was a gorgeous day so we went down to the pier and had lunch at a little cafe. Jason had to go back to work, so I told him that we would stay and hang out at the pier/beach. After a few hours of playing games, walking around, and visiting the aquarium I was exhausted. So we walked across the street to the 3rd street promenade, and called Jason to pick us up.

Headed back to his work and dropped him off. Kaleb wanted to ride home with Jason because he was going to head to the Home Depot before heading home.

So Jazelle and I drive in the rush hour traffic and finally arrive home. It has been awhile since I have heard from Jason so I call him, and he is on his way to The Home Depot. He then tells me someone has hit his car on the freeway! my heart drops and I ask if everyone is ok especially Kaleb.

He then tells me what has happened. He was trying to change lanes to merge onto the 14 freeway from the 5. This guy just would not let Jason pass, so when the guys slows down Jason takes the opportunity to speed up and get in front of him. The guy sees Jason trying to do this and gives a glare look and speeds up full force and hits the back of Jason's car, while continuing to proceed on the other freeway. Jason was unable to get his licence plate number because he left so fast. When I heard this I was thinking how is Kaleb? he tells me Kaleb thought it was fun and wanted to do it again. lol I am so glad they both are ok but very upset we now have to pay $1000 deductible, because we couldn't get the licence plate number. Why do people get so angry for no reason? for a simple lane change? So we have had a rental car for the past week and a half while Jason's car is being fixed.
