Doctor's visit went well
Considering I got banged around between 2 guard rails and hit by another sliding motorist, I am made of some tough stuff. And to think my little Elantra kept me from being thrown out the windshield...

No neck problems, no eye problems, and just a minor ache in the middle of my back, and some small aches here and there. I was even given an EKG to test for heart stress, and it was normal. Blood pressure is 126/82, and other vitals good.

Was advised to take some Aleve until the pains subside, and just monitor myself carefully. Physical therapy is unlikely.

It's a beautiful life, even when so fragile.

3. Yikes! What a horrible ordeal... so glad
that you made it through - and that the prognosis is achy pains in the shorts term, but a-okay in the long term.

Very glad that you are posting tonight - as in you are able... :loveya:

18. hehe
let me blame that, not on poor typing or spelling skills, but a funky glitch in the touch pad on my laptop - that periodically makes typing a pain (I type a new word and it magically moves to wherever I last typed the same level.) Until I get fed up of editting what I write (as new words get created through the glitch as things like editting and "thing" get merged) and finally restart the computer - I have to by eye try to correct the funky things that appear on my screen. I bet this doesn't make any sense, does it? :D

23. I wasn't making fun of you!
I really meant it... for a short month, it has been long! It did tie in nicely to what you said, but only in a good way! :hi:

36. I feel honored...
given an easy entre to a poke of sarcasm... and you politely, and friendily back away... perhaps it is that looming chair in the corner? hehe... thanks for the pass on the opportunity :hi:

Sounds like a little while of taking it easy, some painkillers and a hot bath is a good idea... glad nothing serious got broken! :)

12. Not bad after what I went through yesterday
Otherwise, things are good. :-)

Are you the Annie I am thinking of? Jay Buhner's girlfriend? If so, wow! I am glad you looked me up... if not, chalk this up to the light head injury. :hi:

26. WOW!!!!
I never thought you would register on DU. Or for that matter, I would get a chance tochat with you again...You'll have to tell me who your friend is... hopefully not someone I pissed off. :evilgrin:

For DUers reading this, this is a dear friend of mine from my Seattle days. I am stunned! It has been 3 years??

If you still have AIM, add ZombyWoofDU to your list. There is no way I can catch you up on here, LOL. :bounce: :hi:

(and Jay broke my heart too... and now Edgar! :cry: )

You must be going nuts with the thaws, then the freezes, ad infinitum.

Quite a winter we're having this year. Best I can say about it is we need the water, but sheesh!

I am an aspirin purist.. Bayer and all... but due to the blood-thinning properties of aspirin, she recommended Aleve as an alternative. Or Tylenol... but I never tried Aleve until recently, and it worked. :-)

44. Whew! I didn't realize you'd had an accident
Glad to hear that the test results came back okay!

I'd kill myself if anything bad happened to you. Or, maybe just have some pie. But it wouldn't be a pie that I liked.
