I was sound asleep in my bed. A vehicle clipped my brother's parked Jeep Cherokee, sending it smashing into a neighboring Mazda MX-3.
12:46:30 AM
My brother came into my room, "Stephen! Stephen! Someone just hit my car!" He caught me at the end of a sleep cycle so I got up almost as if I had not been asleep. "Call the police!" I exclaimed as I put on my sandals. We walked outside to assess the damage and wait for the police.
12:53 AM
My brother calls my stepdad. Thankfully, for him it's only 6:53 PM since he is working a contract in Hawaii.
1:10 AM
The police arrived to take pictures and gather information. One police officer informed us that there was a car in the ditch down the road. It was probably the car that hit my brother's jeep. Most of the debris in the parking lot was from the offending car. It appeared to have taken more damage. The police officer explained that the car in the ditch had broken a tie rod.
1:25 AM
The police officer wakes my neighbor up to give him a police report number for his damaged MX-3. I do some Spanish interpretation to facilitate communication between the police officer and my neighbor.
1:45 AM
Previously very sleepy, now wide awake, I began to blog about the past hour.
