I was heading out for a booty-call, had a car run a read light, which means that this happened.
Car ran a red at an intersection, had nowhere to go but the curb, was too large a curb to try to lift over it.
Last time I had wreck around here, I ended up in the hospital for a week, had surgery, and spent seven months healing up. This time, the bike took the brunt.
I got flipped into the sidewalk, but came away with, luckily, just a sore/twisted lower back and a gash on my palm.

I despise bad drivers.

Make the booty
come to you.
Took off. I didn't hit his car, I swerved and slammed breaks, still hit the curb at speed. Was going downhill. After some nice folk helped me up and checked on me, I noticed two SPD offices a few feet away giving a homeless dude shit and not making eye contact with me. I know better than to expect anything good from SPD, so I picked my bike up and walked it home.
Did you go party tonight? Did you manage to meet up with your ladies/dudes/ladiedudes?
Otherwise not very eventful beyond a hectic work day.
was all "bye have a good time gosh can't even look at you too cute"
drank some burrs and looked at a campfire
hell of warm though
Also, left arm, not doing so great.
you can come with me to the next bonfire and we'll hang out (hold hands?)
that is the blurst
I'll put in $20.
and a basket and a little bell!
and every weekday next week
thankfully I actually have next Saturday and Sunday off, for the first time in like four months I'll have two days off
What a jerk driver.
least you mostly okay though.
My weekend's been spent playin' dumb videogames
So it's been pretty good so far.
That would be nice but when there are people here who have much more pressing issues, I refuse to take donations. Plus, pay-pal never responded to the paperwork I sent them so they still hate me.
I wish that you didn't have to work so much.
I've been telling people for a while that this is how I'll die. Some ass will blow a redlight and *splat*
After a couple of hours for things to settle in-
lower back and most of below the waist: fucked
left arm: fucked
But still no noticeable swelling or anything broken so I guess I have an excuse to be lazy for a couple of days.
And we never heard from Antimatter again.
that sucks about your bike though, I'm glad you weren't hurt any more than you were. even when your bike is chained up motorists don't give a shit it seems.
I'm not kidding. Who else is in? Should I set up a kickstarter?
we went around searching but we couldn't find her
put out some food and bedding and stuff and we're just watching today
sigh
Hope I don't bomb the test
my dad had his big toenails removed and is in a lot of pain so he is angry at me a lot
i can not decide how sad this image is
Gotta get myself prepared for the podcast recording we got as well in the morning.
And then in the afternoon I'll be taking my nephew out to the Harry Potter exhibition that'll be ending soon here.
I spent last night hanging out with a theatre person or two, people I ain't spent too much time with for a while, and it was nice to catch up. Kind of weird, because we're supposed to have all sorts of vague rivalries and animosities, but really enjoyable, overall.
