Hey, Bitches. I posted in my LJ, but for those non-LJ types, I ended my hellacious day by rear-ending some poor 18 year old on the 101. It was totally my fault—I was distracted and didn't notice the usual LA stop-and-go had become more stop than go. Luckily he and his girlfriend were fine (they were in a Mitsubishi Montero SUV and only blew out one taillight), but I completely crunched the front of my Forester and tweaked the hell out of my neck and back. The Forester has been towed to a body shop for what looks to be more than a thousand in damages (my deductible is $500), and my insurance company has been informed. For now I am carless and hurting. It really hasn't been a good day.
There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

Aww, Kristin, big big hugs! I hate that--the few times I've been in an accident, it's been one of those things, where my mind just wasn't there enough, and the other person is like "What the HELL?" Hated that feeling. I hope the damage ends up being fairly easy to fix.
You all and your body issues--I have plenty of them, and the occasional "I'm too fat to leave the house/kiss anyone/look good", but not going to get a massage hadn't even OCCURRED to me to be one of them, before! Huh. Cause--screw that, they're people I PAY to touch me! I mean, maybe if the person giving the massage was really hot or something...
I had a yummy yummy dinner tonight--anyone who's ever in Orlando should go to "Season 52". It's delicious, AND nutritious! All the entrees are promised to have less than 500 calories (partly by not layering on cream sauces, and partly by portion size) and the desserts are served in little shot glasses, so you can have just a taste, or you can have several!

{{{Kristin}}} What a rotten end to the day. I'm so sorry, it must feel like injury on top of insult. I hope you don't end up too stiff and sore.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Thanks everyone. I think I'm going to go collapse now. Love to all of you--I needed it today.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Kristin, I am so sorry about the accident. Injury on top of insult is right... Get some good sleep tonight.
I mean, maybe if the person giving the massage was really hot or something...Sigh, I used to have the mostest gorgeous massage guy ever.

Oh crap, Kristin, that sucks. Be nice if life would let up on you a little, wouldn't it?

Ugh. This is the second morning in a row that I have woken up at 4:30 and been not able to get back to sleep. I guess this means I will be all coffeed up in time to go to work...and that I can go to work early and monopolize the copier.
Not enough reason to get up at 4:30, IMHO.
Kristin, what a shitty day, honey. I'm so sorry.
