Just a quick update since it's hard for me to type right now.
I was in a really bad wreck yesterday. My car is completely totaled. I spent 3 hours in the emergency room last night because I thought my hand was broken but it's just sprained really badly. I have a nice burn on my right wrist from the airbag.
I was coming home from work yesterday around 5:15 and the traffic was bad. The guy in front of me stopped short so I stopped short and the two women behind me decided they weren't going to stop at all. I got double rear ended and smashed into the truck in front of me. My radiator exploded and I thought the car was going to catch on fire. Well, my back bumper was knocked completely off, my front bumper was creased from the guy's trailer hitch, and the passenger side airbag came out so hard and fast that it shattered my windshield. I threw my hands in front of my face to keep the airbag from breaking my neck, hence the sprained hand.
Other than the hand and the burn I've got whiplash and I hurt all over. Not to mention, I am now without a vehicle until further notice.
But, thank God that I was only mildly injured. It could have been a lot worse. I thought I was going to die.
So, that's the scoop. I'm going to take a percocet and go to sleep.
