well, fuck me, but I've had better days.
Just got home from work. Left at 5:45. Was in a 3 car pileup on 57th. lucky me! I was the middle car in the accident. Waiting to get onto LSD, when a mercedes benz plows into me full speed, knocking me *under* the SUV in front of me. Car is almost certainly totalled, and I've got damage to my right hip and thigh, left shoulder, left elbow, left forearm. possibly more.
I should have let them take me to a hospital. sigh. Was too busy having the panic attack of my life to be sensible. (Firemen came to give me oxygen, 'cause I stopped breathing, as I am prone to do when I panic.) Between the panic attack and the cramping?!?! that hit me, I was a right mess.
My hip and thigh have a raised 6inch bright red bruise, while the rest is in varying shades and bumpage. I don't yet know if I damaged anything else, but I figure that once I sleep on things, then everything will be screaming at me come morning.
send me good wishes folks. I need them.
