Auto Update & Odds & Ends

For those who’ve been wondering, the car situation is still – almost 2 weeks later – in limbo. Allstate has gotten a firm estimate from the body shop – $5,600. They’re supposed to finally send a human being out to take a look at my car and assess the estimate sometime this week, as well as check to see if it’s too close to their “threshold” for writing the car off. I’m getting a bit tired of waiting but there hasn’t been much I’ve been able to do to speed the process along, other than call Allstate every other day to check on the progress of the claim.

I’ve also been having problems with my web host – the site has not been accessable much the past few days. If it keeps up I’ll have to start looking for a new hosting company.

I’ve got a few blog posts in my head that I have to make time to type out – my “Lord Of The Rings” review, the long-overdue review of my iPod, and a couple others. With the holiday season almost over, my work schedule will shortly lighten up and I’ll be able to post more regularly. Or so goes the plan. We’ll see what reality brings.
