The Accident.

So Friday was a day that many Automobile Operators dread.

I wanted to cash my paycheck despite the horrible snowy weather conditions that were occurring at that time. I was coming across a covered bridge near where I work. I was coming across the bridge and decided that the conditions were a little more slick than I had thought, so I pressed on the breaks to slow down a bit. Then, I felt a bang and I jerked backwords and my neck went in an odd position. I knew that someone had rear ended me.

I pulled up to a more appropriate spot and got out to assess the damage, still aware that my neck was hurting me still. The back of my car was demolished. I wasn't angry at anyone, but I was really upset about the car. The man who hit me asked me if I was ok, and we swapped info. A little while after, the police came along with the ambulance, and I was brought to the hospital for my neck. Come to find out, I had only strained it, but they gave me Vicodin and something called Soma to get rid of the pain.

So basically, I was stoned all weekend while I camped out on my Grandmother's couch. Nice. Today, I haven't had to take much of my meds, but I'm still a bit sore and I'm back home. As for my car, it's getting repaired, but it may take anywhere from 3-12 days, depending. I'm driving my dads car and he's driving a rental, because apparently nineteen is not a trustworthy age and people don't rent cars to people that young. So I'm emotionally drained, tired, and sick for my car. Just when I thought things couldn' t get worse. "sigh"
