ER
Despite my frequent rantings on our messed up medical system, and my promises to never go to the emergency room again, I made another visit today. At least this time it will be on someone else's tab.
Dan and I were sitting at a red light waiting to get on the highway when a lady plowed into the back of us and gave me some pretty good whiplash. I went down to the emergency room and the doctor had me do some x-rays and stuff (which I got to keep so I will post them on here sometime soon).
Anyway, he said my neck bones are all fine, but that my muscle got stretched out and torn up so I will have some pain until it heals. About 30 different people told me I would wake up in the morning with worse pain, so I'm looking forward to that.
They gave me a doctors note so I don't have to work tomorrow. I will probably still go in, but we'll see how I feel in the morning.
Tuesday: Transmission, Wednesday: Neck, Thursday: ?

I went down to Provo tonight and picked up my hooptie wagon so I would have something to drive for a few days while my car is in the shop. Miraculously, it made it up to Salt Lake. We'll see if it makes it to work and back.
Oh, man... I'm sorry. I hope
Oh, man... I'm sorry. I hope that the pain is minor, man. But hey... let's hear it for Hooptie Wagons.

I was rear-ended at the 3-way stop intersection of 800 N. and 300 E. in Provo, UT (right at the bottom of the hill leading up to BYU campus) last August.
I was stopped at the stop sign and a California guy slammed into me with his Honda Civic. Apparently, he was talking on his cell phone and didn't realize how fast he was coming up on a vehicle MOMENTARILY STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM.
Since I was in a SUV, his Civic went right under my vehicle and got all messed up. I had some undercarriage damage (nothing visible--the impact pushed my muffler and all sorts of other things forward), but that wasn't about to stop me from getting his insurance to pay the $900 to get everything back to normal.
Still, despite the excellent compensation his Liberty Mutual policy gave me, it pissed me off. Big time.
