THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE....

...not. Well, at about 10:30 am or something today, me, and four other friends of mine were hit by somebody running a red light at 50mph. And just to let you know, they hit the front passenger side door. Where I was sitting. Funnn..... But, we're all pretty much okay, though two of us are staying in the hospital overnight. I'm luckily not one. Though, I did apparently make a huge crack on the windshield with my head.... Again... such a fun day. *rolls eyes*

Oh my God!

I'm glad you're okay, glad nobody was seriously injured...hope you don't have a concussion or anything.
car crashes scare the hell out of me. there are so many bad drivers on the road.
but it could have been a lot worse. that's amazing that your side of the car got hit and you're pretty much okay. somebody up there likes you.
do you know who hit you? were they drunk, or careless, or what? <P>

They were just careless. They got charged with Reckless Driving and apparently didn't even argue the charge. The van we were in is TOTALLED though. Aside from it being bent into a boomerang shape from the actual crash (along with the front axle breaking in half on the median strip), They had to cut the back out to get one of us out of it. It sucked bad... But, just talked to the last two left in the hospital. They're home now, and mostly okay. Although, one of them apparently has a REALLY bad concusion. She can't remember anything for longer than like ten minutes...

oh no!
i'm not sure how concussions work, but i hope that gets better. that's horrible!
...you could definietly get some kind of settlement for this if you wanted to take it to court.
