what the hell is wrong withh people?

was in a ( completely minor ) hit and run last night. the guy's mirror hit me on the shoulder. he was driving so fast I heard the sound, looked up, he was at the end of the street, and then it started hurting. I first thought I had dislocated my shoulder or something, I couldn't really feel my fingers, and it hurt like a mother.

we waited 20 minutes for an ambulance, and when it came, the guys poked me and asked 'does this hurt?' ( it did ) and if I could walk ( I could ) and then told us to take a cab to the ER. what the hell? I mean, I get it, I was conciouss and all that, but the number of caps that had driven past us while we were waiting for the ambulance was probably around 20. ack.

after an intensenly uncoomfortable cap ride, we waited for three hours before I had a scrape cleaned by a nurse and was then poked and pulled and prodded by a doctor ( for about 5 minutes ) and then had to wait another 45 minutes or so, to get a piece of paper describing what had happened and a pamphlet about signs to look out for re: my 'open wound' in case of infection.

was home around 6.

my shoulder is still incxredibly sore. the impact was on the shoulder blade, which is also where the scrape is. I was trying to explain to Anna ( who was a trooper, by the way. she'd been at a party at her dorm and had been drinking since 11:30 AM and still helped me out. ) and the best I can describe it is like, the pain from the impact is like a persistant bass line, and the scrape is like the high notes that's what it feels like.

can move my arm, mainly from elbow down. lifting my arm and sort of rotating it in the shoulder joint is painful. last night, my whole arm felt like when you funnybone it, from shoulder to fingertips, and that was actually the worst part.

ew. I was supposed to do things this weekend and next week! I'm super annoyed, and feel sorry for myself. send padaleckis, plz.

:D :D thank you! *snuggles with*

[sperrywink]

Ouch! I really hope your shoulder feels better!

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

Thank you!! Me too. I hate being able not to do simple things.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Oh honey. That sounds horrible.

*sends love*

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

yeah, kind of.

*mwah* thank you.

[ambershiines.livejournal.com]

WTF - Idiotic drivers.

Hope you start feeling better soon. )

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

preeetty much, yes. I mean, what the hell? Asshole. <_< :D thank you! *makes out with your icon*

[withdiamonds.livejournal.com]

Wow, sweetie. What a bunch of idiots. I hope your shoulder gets better soon.

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

yup! And thank you! It's just so annoying, cause it isn't serious, but it still prevents me from doing mundane everyday sort of things.

[dick-grayson.livejournal.com]

What the hell? Did they x-ray your shoulder blade at least? That bone is kind of thin. Of course, it's not like they could put you in a cast, but you would think it would be helpful to know if you needed to let an injury like that heal for a few weeks. Glad you made it through, otherwise. {{{hugs}}}

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

Man, I wish I knew.

nope. I maybe should have asked, but it was like, 5:30 in the morning, and we'd been waiting for three hours and he didn't think it was broken, so I couldn't be bothered.

I'll take it easy for a little while, that's for sure! No climbing for me. :s

thank you! *hugs*

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

[stellamira]

Ow. I guess I'm a bit too far to send a Padalecki over, though. :(

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

Eh, it's alright, I'll just look at your icon. :)
are you enjoying yourself?

[stellamira]

are you enjoying yourself?

Veeery much.

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

I'm glad to hear that. :D

*fusses over you*

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

mmmmm, exactly what I needed. :D

Okay, I am thinking significantly less-than-neighborly thoughts about that driver, and the professional care providers aren't doing much better (like, I hope karma bites him in the ass so hard he shits teeth for a month, less-than-neighborly...)

CJ, I hope you're okay, and I'm glad you've got a trooper of a friend who saw you through it all. Take Care.

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I mean. What.the.hell. He could have friggin' stopped and asked if I was okay.

Also, the nurses are striking at the moment and it was friday night/saturday morning and to be honest, my injury wasn't that serious, so I do understand why I had to wait as long as I did but--- good god, you know?

I'm okay, just pretty sore and annoyed and useless. :P thank you. *hugs*

[saba1789.livejournal.com]

Ugh, that sucks! *hugs carefully* I hope you feel better by now.

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

*hugs* much. but man, it sucked.
