I just got a call from my insurance company. For a 73 914 with an estimated 144,000mi, bucket seats, targa top, power steering, power breaks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

$4770 with $500 taken away if I keep it for salvage (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)

Well, just to prove that when it rains it pours, here is some other stuff that happened from this. Sit back, its a tale.....

The paramedic that showed up on scene with the EMT in the ambulance has filed a complaint about me with the school claiming that when she got on scene I identified myself as a 3rd year trauma resident (which is a doctor, not a student) and that I was confrontational. She said that I told her to leave and that Chris didnt need EMS. She further said that I told her to "step back" and that I "knew what I was doing" and asked her for her ID so I could turn her in. She said that she told me that I would have to speak to medical command and that I responded by saying that "I know everyone in medical command!" I dont even know what medical command is and this whole statement is a complete fabrication.

So, I had to meet with the head of emergency medicine to explain myself. I couldnt believe that someone would make up such blatant lies. I have no idea of the motive behind this either. Since my account of the events, which were completely uninteresting, conflict with her account I am having to meet with the dean of education for the school to see where we go from here.

Am I worried? Not even a little as I have 3 witnesses: Chris, Noel and Heidi were all there the whole time and confirm what I remember. This is great shit to have to deal with right before I had my surgery shelf exam (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

When the fuck did my life become a soap opera?!
