Leave a note for your parents, explaining that dent in the side of the car.
We Have A Winner!!! 02/15/10
Mom & Dad,Winner: Marc
I'm sure that by the time you find this note Dad will have noticed the dent in the driver's side door. Before I explain what happened please know that I'm truly sorry and that I'll find a way to pay for the repairs.
Go ahead and laugh, Dad - I know you are. But I'll get another job and I'll pay. You'll see.
Anyway. You know how I told you guys that Mike and I were going to the movies last night? We actually went to a house party.
I had more to drink than I should have but I figured I could still drive home. I know, stupid right? After all those TV commercials and all those news stories, I still haven't learned.
Anyway, when I was heading for the car Mike noticed I wasn't walking too straight. He said he didn't think I should drive and I got pretty mad at him.
We said some things to each other that are best not repeated and I turned to get in the car. But Mike tackled me from behind and we smashed into the door, leaving that nasty dent you saw.
While we were wrestling on the ground a few other kids from the party came out to help him and got the keys out of my hand. When they finally calmed me down Mike found someone sober enough to drive us home.
I'm really sorry. I'd like to say that was the first time I tried to drive after having a few drinks but it's not. I think I need help but I don't know what to do.
Please help me.

Reason: I thought this entry was very touching. Great job, Marc.

I was running (and I can't blame the fog.
I wasn't even pulled by the dog.)
I hit the car with a cry,
So distracted was I,
Composing limericks for Call Me Cate's blog.
I was shopping at the mall, I parked between two really nice looking vehicles, no dents, came back with a clunker on both sides and a dent in the side of the car. p.s. Enjoy your presents!
Dear Mom and Dad,
Remember that money you owe me?
Call us even.
Ummm, mom and dad, I have something to tell you. I'm pregnant and I'm keeping the baby!
[much ranting, raving, hollering and crying from the parents]
Hey, folks, I'm just kidding!! Really! Yep, I'm just fine....but you know how I have the tiniest, little bit of trouble backing into a parking place? Well....

Dear Daddy,
The pole jumped out and hit my car.
Love,
