Crash redux

This morning we cleaned off the bumper and the back of the car (it was coated in salt) and surveyed the damage. Jen checked in the morning and said there were a couple of scratches and a dent. When I went to check on the way to work, there were at least 6-8 scratches and a good 3-4 dents - most of which are in a circular pattern thanks to something on the crash bar on his SUV.
So frustrating. It's a real eyesore.
So now I guess I have to call him when I go home and tell him there's more damage than I thought, and ask if he wants to come look at it tomorrow in the daylight, and ask him what he wants to do about repairs. I imagine if I take it somewhere they will want to replace the bumper ($$$$) because it's plastic and you can't suck dents out or whatever, but I don't know if he will be willing to do that. Gosh, I hope it's not another phone confrontation because I really don't want to have two in one day (the gym is enough for me, thanks).
I just hate this. I want a weekend where I can just catch up on rest and heal my heart. This weekend is a pretty busy one already, with a mall trip we can't avoid (ugh) but now I have to find time to see this guy and maybe take my car in for an estimate and I'm exhausted already just thinking about it. Sigh.

Also, I haven't felt the baby move since before I got rear-ended and I would be a big fat liar if I said that didn't make me nervous.
