Urgent Care. On a Saturday evening, the ER is already going to be filling up. Urgent Care will likely be (comparatively) faster.

X-Rays? ER.

Do not all Urgent Cares do x-ray? Tim got x-rayed at Urgent Care after the Great Puncture Wound Adventure.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
shrift, call your local urgent care before you go and find out if they do X-rays, some do and some don't.

Well, I live next to an ER. I guess I could walk over there are see how busy they are?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If you're breathing properly and not bleeding this is a horrible time for the ER.
Well, you know compared to the happy fun time you were going to have. I agree with sj saying to call UC. The ones I've been to advertised X-Rays, but who needs a wasted trip when you're trying to find a doctor?
Muffin question: I think I must be overmixing. I'm skimming the internet, and THREE strokes? Seriously? I hate biting into a blister of flour and leavening in baked goods. I fold until I can't see any more dry bits and then stop. Are you guys stopping sooner?
(And it does seem using sour/soda as part of the leavening might help, but still...)

If I could find an UC near me, I would do that. But since I don't need this ASAP, I guess I'll keep searching.

Hmm. Maybe Lakeview Immediate Care. I'll call and see if they can do x-rays.
Edit: And they do. I'm going to register now on their website and go in the morning.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ugh. My cat just had a seizure! And of course I have no idea if he's ever had one before, because I'm really only at home awake a small bit of the time. He seems more or less OK, so call the vet Monday? Poor boo.

Good luck with the hand, shrift. I have no advice.
Nor do I have device about mixing muffins. I am a chronic over mixer and honestly don't notice the reputed ill effects. But the folding-things-into-egg-whites-to-make-souffles instructional videos seem to advocate 4 strokes, so three seems excessively meagre.
Eta: poor kitty! No advice there, either.
