Getting to go to Penny Arcade Expo 2009 = AWESOME

Getting to meet the cast of X-Play = AWESOME

Meeting up with old friend and making a bunch of new ones = AWESOME

Flipping your car @ 60 MPH on I-5 = NOT AWESOME

My car is totaled, but at this point, I'm just happy I didn't hit anyone else and that everyone made it out okay. It's a very strange feeling to be in your car and suddenly see everything that's not held down fall up. Also I'm going to freak out any time that I hear a car so much as peel out for the next couple of weeks.

As for what happened, I was trying to get into the left lane for a left-side exit.  Checked my mirror and didn't see anyone, but when I head checked as I was turning into the lane there was a car RIGHT THERE.  I over-corrected, started swerving back and forth out of control, and finally my car started spinning out.  We hit the right-side divider and skidded along that 'til we hit a sign, which whipped us around and caused my car to roll.  It's a miracle, but all of us made it out just fine.  The worst injury was my friend Erik, who cracked his thumbnail a bit.

... Yeah.
