Today in central KY, it was 60F and sunny outside, so the fiance and I decided to take a stroll through our local park. The main reasoning behind this was so I could finally get some outside use from my new D50 I picked up less than 2 weeks ago.
After snapping quite a few pics, we went to our local Walmart to pick up some groceries. After we were done, I was sticking some groceries in the trunk, and a lady walks up to me. She points as the huge-ass dent in my bumper (which I didn't even notice), and proceeded to tell me how she sat in her car and watched this guy try to pull into the parking space next to me, hit my car, back out, and go elsewhere. She had written down his plate number and a description of the vehicle, thankfully. While we standing there talking, the guy had pulled down the parking lot a little further, and happened to see us talking. He promptly ran to his truck, started it up, and took off, all this while I was running after him. I guess he thought nobody had seen him. The lady explained to me that he had dropped off two people, and was most likely waiting for them to come back out. The lady couldn't ID the people he dropped off, so going inside after them was pointless, especially if you know how many people crowds our Walmart on a Sunday afternoon.
Needless to say, I'm completely pissed about the whole thing, as this is the first time I've ever been involved in anything like this, giving or receiving. Overall, it's only cosmetic damage, and I keep trying to tell myself that the car still drives fine. Not sure when I'll be able to get it fixed, although with my large deductible, I seriously doubt I'll even bother bringing my insurance into it.
Oh well, I had the car for a good 9 months before some asshat hit it. Maybe I'll just stare at the dent for the next 5 years.

And just as a bonus, I'm including a picture of the ugliest duck known to man. Like I had stated previously, we went to the park to use my camera. Be warned, this duck looks like it has another duck trying to come out of it's mouth, that's why I think it's fugly. Other than that, it's pretty.
