Texas....Tomorrow....and Southwest...

So I have a love hate relationship with Texas...as many of you know....I love the cheapness of it...Why yes I would like a house, barn and 5 acres for $150,000 thanks. I also love the restaurants, and the fact that it was John's base and he could go back again. The fact that they pay their teachers an acceptable amount to start with also helps....Now the bad...

So just a quick recap for those not familiar with the story...John and I were in car/motorcycle accident in Texas. We were on the motorcycle and she literally turned into use to make a left hand turn, then took off and left us laying in the road...Awesome...

So John had under insured/no insurance coverage which was great...while it wouldn't have payed alot it might have payed for half the co-pays related to his (at the time) 3 surgeries. But in the Great State of Texas...Blue Cross Blue Shield can put a lien on all money we would get, not that its alot but really? We always paid the co-pays and on time...this is what you have insurance for right? So basically by the time BCBS was done screwing us we got nothing...Awsome...Strike one for Texas...some dumbass tort reform...

Now for the (lets call her SB stupid bitch) that left us in the road...someone behind us took off and chased her until she had to stop because John with his leg and somehow knocked her bumper off and given her a flat tire. So great we know who did this right? No it wouldn't have mattered, she had NOTHING (let me say not looking to get rich but at least pay the co-pays and some of the 4 YEARS John was off work for this). She didn't own the car (her boyfriends) no insurance and no house.....Awsome.....So we went to court she owes us money enough to maybe...maybe...cover the co-pays.....if she ever gets a job she's supposed to pay us installments right?

Flash forward to a few months back. We haven't heard anything in about 2 years we are still assuming she is in jail right? Nope...she got out committed another Felony AND (this is my favorite part sarcasm...) She now doesn't owe us ANYTHING!!!! Not like we were counting on getting it anyway but it's the principle...Because in Texas since her most recent Felony was more severe than ours it just deletes what she owes us...I could not F***ing believe it!!! Even John was really pissed!!

So bring us up to tomorrow...Tomorrow depresses me (and John)....Because the Southwest Pilot window opens....(and we actually know people there!) This depresses me because if she hadn't hit us John could apply as he would have enough time to meet the requirements...but as it stands now he doesn't.....pretty much sucks...think I'll have a drink.......
