So, my car's totaled.

So I'd just left from the eye doctor, and started feeling low blood glucose symptoms. Didn't feel too bad at the time, so I decided it could wait until I got to the 7-11 down the road. Apparently not, because the next thing I remember was being loaded into an ambulance. Turns out I passed out because my blood sugar plummeted much faster than I'd thought - found out it was 21 when paramedics got to me - and ran into a pole going 45 mph. Thankfully no other cars were involved and I wasn't injured too badly. Just some fiction burn on my neck, a scrape on my hand, and some bruising in my chest, and I'm pretty sure most of my injuries were from the airbag deploying. I'm sure I'm gonna be really sore and stiff the net few days, but it could have been so much worse. The ER folks did CT scans on my head, neck, and chest, everything was fine, and x-rays on my wrist were fine too. Basically I got to chill in bed for a while and got some apple juice (half of which spilled on my shirt thanks to the angle of my head while they had me in a neck brace), turkey on a wheat dinner roll (for which I found the mayo packet halfway through eating), some shortbread cookies, and some peaches.

Now the downside. As I noted, my car's totaled. It wasn't exactly a new car - an '06 Charger - so we only had liability on it. So I have to see if they'll help cover my ER bill, but it's very doubtful the car itself is gonna be paid for. This also means I'm gonna be relying on rides to and from work and we're stuck paying for grocery delivery for a while, and aside from whatever art I've already gotten queued up, no more art for a while until I can figure out finances and bills and whatnot.

Anyway, just thought I'd give everyone an update. I may open shinies and/or take Paypal donations if anyone's offering, but I'd rather not do so unless it seems like my finances won't work out otherwise.
