Well, now I know how an airbag deployment goes.

How shocked was I at experiencing a car crash that I forgot to take in how hot the officer was? Or not. Either way, I'm losing it.
@redrummy Yikes! Glad you’re OK!

@redrummy Yikes! Glad you’re OK!
@mivox Glad the other driver was okay as well. This just forces the need to get back on the fucking bike.

Well, now I know how an airbag deployment goes. Fuck. (Everyone's okay.)

Glad you’re okay 🫂 -
@redrummy oh no!

You said you're alright, and that may be true for your physical state*, but please give yourself the time and space to recover mentally and emotionally. A crash where an airbag deploys is traumatic, even if there were no apparent injuries. 🫂*keep assessing yourself throughout the next few days/weeks, these sorts of things can pop up after your stress response recedes. Speaking from experience from both being in car crashes and bike crashes with cars.

@James Thank you. Now that the adrenaline has worn off, I definitely feel the effect in my back & neck. Goddamnit, car culture sucks. I need to get back on the bike.

@aral Thank you. I'm "okay" but could really use some muscle relaxants right about now.

@stevegis_ssg We're both "okay". But the car is totaled. And now that the adrenaline has worn off I could really use some muscle relaxants.

Oh, I forgot to mention, it was mom's car. She's of the age that "it is what it is" so she won't be punitive about the replacement. I will do whatever I can to make it right for her, obviously, because my mom is awesome, but what a mess.

Glad everyone walked away from it. Here's hoping your whiplash goes away soon. -
@stufromoz Did I mention those airbags smell like sulfur?

@redrummy
Glad everyone walked away from it. Here's hoping your whiplash goes away soon.@steter Yes, that was of course the first question I asked of the other driver, and repeatedly so. I'm sure we're both a little sore now, but otherwise not for the worse aside from the trauma.

@spytfyre @stufromoz Jealous? Of snow? What's your address? I'll send you PLENTY.

I have more in my bank account than that car cost, and another of equal value at my house, for what it's worth. Anchorage is the Subaru capital of America, after all.

@redrummy Good. If it helps you feel any better, you are definitely an ad for Subaru today.
