I'm a Bit of a Wreck right now

When I was a kid one of my favorite book was called "Fortunately/Unfortunately" And that pretty much sums up what happened this afternoon.

I was in a car accident today.

Fortunately it was totally not my fault.

Unfortunately a Hummer ran a stop sign and crashed to the car I was driving.

Fortunately my seatbelt did its job and I am mostly unhurt.

Unfortunately the car is totaled.

Fortunately the car was a rental because ours was in the shop for a minor repair.

Unfortunately the amount of paper work we had to fill out was rather vast.

Fortunately Peter came back from NYCC to help me.

Unfortunately he didn't make his signings or panels today.

Fortunately he will be there tomorrow as will the rest of us.

I am grateful that I am not hurt past a couple of bruises and a bit of a headache.

I'm grateful that you're not hurt past a couple of bruises too!

Take a hot, hot shower and some meds before you go to sleep, though. Tomorrow morning will be a whole new exercise in stiff when you find all the secondary damage. (Unfortunately, I speak from experience.)

I'm so glad you're ok!! I agree with the comment up there - hot shower and some meds before bed so you won't be miserably stiff tomorrow! ((hugs))

Ack. I prescribe tea. Or possibly tequila. I'm glad you're all right, though.

Oh MAN, I am so glad that you and yours are okay. I second the votes for a hot shower (or bath) and a relaxing night. Take care, hon.

Oh, I'm glad you're okay! Definitely a hot shower and some Tylenol PM are in order.

Whoa! I am so glad that ended on a "fortunately" and not an "unfortunately!" (That book is definitely a cool memory you brought uo too!)

ACK!!!!

Glad to hear you're okay!

(And I'm glad the Fortunatelys seemed to outweigh the Unfortunatelys . . . )

Oh I am so glad you're okay!

(and that it wasn't your car!)

You were alone in the car? If so, another fortunately!

*hugs* I'm so glad you weren't hurt!

I'm thankful you have more fortunate on that list.

[identity profile] theresamather.livejournal.com 2008-04-19 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
eeek!

So glad you are not hurt!

[identity profile] eilonwy.livejournal.com 2008-04-19 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
What a relief that you're okay!! So glad you're not hurt. The same thing happened to me a few years ago, with "just" a mini-van, I can't imagine how much worse it must be with a Hummer. ::hugs:: Take care of yourself, physically and emotionally, okay?

*hugs* I hope that tomorrow is a day when the fortunate things outweigh the unfortunate.

Fortunately you are ok.

Unfortunately we aren't around to tell you in person how glad we are that you are ok.

I'm glad you are OK!

[identity profile] trinalin.livejournal.com 2008-04-19 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
Eek! I'm glad you're safe and that the fortunatelies outweighed the unfortunatelies.

Glad you're okay!!!

Yikes, glad you're OK!
