Car update
The dealership body shop guys banged some stuff around and made the drivers' side door open for free, because they can't replace the fender (it needs to be replaced, bye money) within the timeframe before Brady needs to be able to drive to work.
While doing that, the body shop guy realized the tire was actually fucked up from having been hit by the fender, SO the tire is now being replaced. That is free, because I bought a tire plan when I bought the car. I had spare funds when I purchased the car and had a feeling that it would benefit me when in the future I was not living rent free. This was a really, really good idea. (I also purchased a maintenance plan. In both cases, I won't have to pay anything for tires or any maintenance work until there are 60k miles on the car. Thank you so much, past me.)
Tomorrow it can be picked up with a new front tire again, since we blew out the front passenger tire earlier this year (they have now lost money on my purchasing the tire plan) and then it will just be ugly on a corner for a bit but fully functional. Could have been worse.
