Yesterday morning at 5:30am on IH35 North leaving San Marcus I ate the center concrete median.

SUCKED

It was raining, and I'm not sure due to the damage after hitting the median, but I believe the 18wlr that passed me nicked my front end. After doing so I lost control and hydroplaned. Did my best 'James Bond' manuevers to bring it under control, but couldn't be stopped. Spun twice, and slammed into the wall on the driver's side. Bashed it up pretty good, and the left front wheel is 'pigeon toe'd' pretty bad.

Not totalled,,but my body-shop guy freak'd out as it's been in 3-4 times now. I walked away ok,,back is strained, but hey I get to take off work to get massages! Plus I got a load of Vicodine (sp?)!

Just wanted to vent,,thanks for listening.
Here's what she used-to/will look like:
