Man, today started with cupcakes and ended with gettin' frisked by the fuzz!

Unravled and MisterSatan made a valiant effort to drive down to pick me up from my place, except that I had once again combined my home address with my PO box address and told them to show up at a completely new location. God, I'm so fuckin' awesome.

Once that was figured out, we were off to their place for a couple hours of baking and trading Internet Creep Stories and they're pretty much my two new favorite people.

Then on the way home we got rear-ended on the freeway, and it was kind of a big deal. Even though the other driver was completely in the wrong, one cop was unnecessarily an asshole to Unravled, our car (well, I should say Unravled's car) got searched and we were all frisked by the cops. Oh man, and I had to pee the whole time! But we couldn't leave the car! But I had to pee! I tried to go over to my friend's car when he pulled up and I got yelled at by the police for the first time in my life. Cops yell really scary.

My neck got kinda hurt and I wound up going to the ER later, after I was back in Portland. It's nothing serious, just some "cervical strain" and a prescription for Vicodin. Turns out that "cervical" means more than your lady parts-- man, who knew!

Right now I've got a hospital band on my wrist and an ice pack held to my neck with a scarf. The pain is only annoying, but everyone is warning me that tomorrow is gunna be brutal.

Eesh, not looking forward to that tomorrow.

BUT: the cupcakes turned out great and I am excited to see what happens the next time I hang out with Unravled and MisterSatan. It is going to be hard to out-do today, guys.
