Kissing a parking meter

It was too good to be true - an empty parking spot waiting for me. But my good luck turned to bad almost instantly. As I swerved forward, I misjudged the parking meter on the right. I only realized when I felt a bump as I pulled the hand brake. Too late! How am I going to break the news to my husband??? The car I have been using is having an air-con malfunction and it was like driving in an oven. He let me use his car since he's driving the company Merc for a biz trip to KL. He won't be due back till 2 days later. What am I going to tell him? HOW??? This isn't the first time... A man breaking his tail-lights while reversing into a stationary vehicle is OK (that was him). But a woman scratching the paintwork of the fender while parking - that's unacceptable (that'll be me). What kind of logic is that? But that's the truth with all the men and their cars out there right?
