On my way home from work tonight, I was rear-ended by a 4runner. I think I'm OK, though I'll see how my back and neck feel in the morning. My truck, not so much. Won't know if it's fixable or totaled until the insurance adjuster has a chance to look at it, but to my untrained eye, it looked like there might be frame damage, and it's nearly 9 years old.

ETA: As I expected, I feel no more stiff/sore than usual this morning.

Ouch. At least it'll be the other guy's insurance paying for it. Assuming he has insurance. BT,DT, good luck with the fight.

And hope you're feeling OK tomorrow. Don't need neck injuries.

eep!!! Hope you're OK!! Be careful, sometimes you don't feel those injuries until much later...

I hope that it all works out with your truck.. :/

::pets:: BTDT. Hope you're not too sore tomorrow. (if you can) Take some anti inflammatories before you go to bed... and maybe use a heating pad. You'll feel better for it in the am.

Ack! I hope you're okay.

Owie! Both you and the truck. I hope, if the truck is toast, they give you enough to replace it properly.
And as for you, yes anti-inflammatories, if you feel the need, but you want Ice not heat at this point. Ice stops things from swelling, which is what you want to do at this point. Think sprain.
Heat is for later to speed the healing.
Take Care.

She, actually, and while I don't have all the ins. info b/c she couldn't find her card, the nice officer's computer said the DMV has it on file.

I think I'm just a little sore from the tension, and possibly also from yoga last night, which is why I"m going to see how I feel after a good night's sleep.

I think I'm probably just feeling the effects of the tension from dealing with it all, but I"ll see how I feel after some sleep.

What she said. Ice first, heat later. Even though heat probably feels better now...

I think I am; I think I'm just feeling the tension/stress from dealing with it all. If I'm right, I'll be fine in the AM; if not, I'll figure out who to call then.

No, although I'll probably indulge in a warm bubble bath. I think I've just been tensing muscles while dealing with it all, and that's all I"m feeling.

Ouch!

Glad to hear no imediate damage to you.

Hope the delayed stuff is minor.

Glad to hear you're still in one piece.

Glad that you're okay...

(...hey neck, you hear that? I said, She's Okay!)

How fast was it moving when it hit? (Monkey Curiousity...)

Oh, the suckage.

I'm glad you're okay. That's super lame.

Take it easy, and I hope the insurance stuff goes smoothly.

I'm glad you're (relatively) okay. Ouch. Take it easy for a few days and take care of yourself.

Ack! Glad you are ok (for the immediate moment) and hope you stay that way.

Hope you feel better, and that the insurance is able to reach a satisfactory outcome for you, even if the truck can't be repaired...

So far, so good. Just waiting to hear from my ins. company about getting in a rental and her with her ins. info. (She didn't have the card where she could find it, but the DMV has her insurance on file, so she does have insurance.)

Thanks.

No idea, but clearly faster than she should have been; at an appropriate speed for traffic, even if she'd not stopped for whatever reason, I think it would have done much less damage.

Will do; thanks!

From: [identity profile] nolly.livejournal.com
Thanks. I kind of hope it is, because I didn't really want to replace it quite yet, but I have been longing for something more fuel efficient, too, so I won't cry too hard if it isn't. :)

We say these things as if you're not going to take care of yourself. But, well, what else can we say, right? :)

Hooooly crap that's lame!

*sighs* Backrubs nigh unto any time you want them, next time I see you, assuming desire.

Glad you're in one piece!
