What RUINED your day today?

[Shiela_M]

Holy crap   

What an asshole.

I wish you a speedy recovery for the injuries you did get.  It is a relief that it didn't turn out worse.  As ms said, I hope they charge him big time wreckles endangerment, or some other kind of negligence, and then hammer his ignorant ass with a claim.  He deserves a shit storm for not just hitting you, but for his attitude for the whole thing.

Rest up and take care.

CJ was also in a similar accident. Dumb bitch was fucking around on her phone.

You get better... or else I'll come there and do ya Misery style.

Jules, so glad you sound like recovery will be quick.

And it must be so tiresome to be constantly accused of being drunk.

I know a good lawyer.  Reasonable rates.  Let’s take that motherfucker down a few notches.

Before you start reading this, please know I am okay.

Glad you’re okay. As others have said, thank goodness for that witness. Probably your original nine lives have been extended due to your good works over the years, kitty kat.

Now I'm super paranoid about going on my morning jog.  Since it got really dark now I wear a reflective top, but this morning I put a reflective road vest over the top.  Still only went a half mile before turning around and heading home.

Falling asleep finally at 3 a.m., then getting up at 4 a.m., to give my youngest a ride to work.

Now I'm super paranoid about going on my morning jog.  Since it got really dark now I wear a reflective top, but this morning I put a reflective road vest over the top.  Still only went a half mile before turning around and heading home.

I have a reflective top.  But didn't have it on.  I did have on a light gray long sleeve dri-fit.  
I usually run the sidewalks through our subdivision until I get out to the mainroad and then run a 6 foot wide sidewalk.   But I'll cut down in the street if there is a car blocking the sidewalk.  I don't remember why I was in the street though.  I don't remember where I went from sidewalk to street. 

I'm a little sorer today.  I'm going to my neurologist's office at 11am.   Physically I'm sore, but think everything will be fine.  Lots of tender spots.

There is going to be a lot of sitting around today resting.  Helping the little one with online classes.

Thank you for the well wishes.  I love you guys.

Very used to it, Jed.  I just roll my eyes.  
I used to get mad.  I wanted to scream.  But I realize that there are assholes in the world.

People out here jog on the street instead of on the sidewalk.  It's maddening.  Especially when it's dark out.

Has the driver's Insurance Company made contact with you yet? If not, I wonder 'why not'... they must know there will be Hospital and Police, EMT records regarding the incident, and will receive a copy directly of the Police, Ambulance, and ER findings... findings so far, that is...

Reflective vests need to be worn to be effective, Lol... Hope all is well.

Julie's news served as a wake-up call for me, too. Since the day's are getting shorter and the sun is rising later, if I go out for a run at 6:00, it's still fully dark. This morning, after reading Julie's story, I ordered two reflective running vests with reflective arm bands from Amazon:



I'm lucky because I only have to jog about 4-5 blocks over to a dedicated paved running and cycling path that runs up the entire west side of Manhattan on the Hudson River.

[Shiela_M]

Majority of my running is on the street as there are no sidewalks.  My road has a ditch so if I'm hit and fall in there, who knows how long I'd be there.  I go running around 5:00 am so ita been pretty dark when I go for a while.  The only good thing I've got going for me is there are street lights everywhere.

Public service announcement. I got so frustrated by political phone calls, text spam, and the “Social Security Administration” wanting to confirm my SSN, that I installed an app called RoboKiller on my iPhone. What I learned is that RoboKiller will disable your voicemail system, and forward everything to its server. And it promptly identifies all callers not in your contacts list as spam. It took a day or two to identify the problem, but I had a clerk call me to advise they got a recording that “your mailbox is not set up.” I now had a serious issue on my hand. Only took about three hours on the phone to fix it with AT&T. And RoboKiller is disabled. They wanted 40 bucks for a year’s subscription. I want the dollar value of all the time and calls I lost. LOL.

I'm beginning to answer all these robocalls with "you'll have to speak up, I have a cock in my mouth"

They stammer and I hang up

The only one coming around now is BIG Ben, and there is now way I can talk around that monster.

Next time I'll put my thumb in the side of my mouth so it sounds muffled.  I'll probably pass out from laughing, not get a word out.

Fox was so excited at the prospect, they had the banner made last year.

Sorry to be late to this thread. Even sorrier to hear about your accident MJ.  I hope your recovery is progressing 

Texting even while stationary in a traffic queue is now illegal in the UK. In fact I think it's illegal to touch it at all, even if it's in one of those dashboard holder things.
