I can't think of anything more embarrassing to a new employee than having a bunch of internet friends "lobby" his new company on his behalf. (And why would you want to do that, anyway?) I'm guessing you were joking, but in case you're not, please nobody do this. It would scream "unprofessional."

Aaron, I am soooo sorry this happened to you. I am also sorry I missed this thread yesterday. Just know that my prayers and get-well vibes will be headed your way.

If any good comes of this, it is to remind those of us who get a little too comfortable riding in traffic that this can happen to anyone. I know I am guilty of this. My wife reminds me that she is not worried about what *I* do on the road, but what some careless driver does.

I won't bother repeating what has been said already about lawyers and listening to your docs. It sounds like you are handling it well. Just keep your spirits up and GET WELL!!!

meant as joke. next time smiley to ensure recognition of borderline lame joke

Whew. Good. Sorry if my reaction was overboard, you never know what someone really means on the internet!

Sooo, Aaron.... when you are better.... can you hook me up with some free cable???

I'm sure why: check out the great people on this here board! All the well wishes and great advice - warming the cockles, I say.

I second everyone's best wishes for your recovery and commend you on your magnanimity towards the offending driver. Also getting your wife a kitchen is a great idea, especially if she cooks.

Jesse

I hope you get well soon.

+1 Get well soon...everything else has been said!

I was worried I was over sharing in an inappropriate forum. I'm so appreciative of all of you.

I hope you're not incapacitated too long... inability to exercise is the sucky-est part of healing... anyway, healing thoughts toward you.

Sorry about your accident Aaron. That really sucks

Sorry to read about your misfortune, Aaron. Good luck with your recovery.

Thanks for the kind words from some of you guys as well.

But to be honest, I don't have a fractured bone in my leg and the doc said I can ride when I can breathe deeply on the bike again.

This will be in another week or so, not the long time Aaron will be laid up.

Aaron, I'd go for the nice kitchen.

You could sink your teeth into a project like that to keep your mind off the rest of this nonsense.

Feel better. When you're ready to rehab your knee with bike ride let me know and we'll go for a ride. If there is anything I can do for you now just let me know.

Rub some dirt on it, you'll be fine.

Pain is just weakness leaving your body.

About the bike... it'll buff out.









Best wishes and hope you're feeling better soon!

I'm glad you're ok but I file a ....


LAW SUIT

Dag, Aaron. You need to take it easy to the extent possible. I'm very sorry to hear about your misfortune. Get better quickly!

How're you feeling now, my man? Are you going to have surgery? Are you getting around?

I missed this thread. Sorry about your accident, Aaron. Hope your interview went well and that you'll be able to get back on the bike soon.

Hello Aron, sorry I am late to the post but I have had lots of difficulty with computers and this site lately.

I am glad to hear your OK and your injuries are not more serious, hopefully you'll have a full recovery. I wish I was still in So Jersey I'd pop over and lend a hand too.


BTW all you Philly area C&V guys will have an easier time making big CL scores for a few weeks!!

Don't sweat the interview. Go in there clean, polished, on crutches and smiling. You'll get points for the novelty and for toughing it out.

Ok - status report: the comcast interview was postponed to next week, unrelated. Another company is interested now and I think I like the new opportunity more for a variety of reasons. Things look good.

Still waiting for the police report. The insurance company woman are now claiming I was stopped in the wrong lane. That will be interesting for them to stand by. I'm now going for blood.

Ups and downs...I've passed on buying some great stuff because I need money for out of pocket medical expenses, which SUCKS!

Your well wishes mean a lot!

Aaron, she's got to be kidding. You were stopped in the oncoming lane? Get real! Is there a police report? (Please say yes.)

HOW ARE YOU FEELING PHYSICALLY?!

Never mind the bike trading stuff. You'll get back on that horse when the time is right.

Good luck with the job opportunities. What a good time for you in that realm! And how odd that they should come at the same time as the injury. But you'll get through that, too.

Thanks Tom...my stock seems to be doing ok.

The report hasn't been issued yet, obviously I'm worried about how it's written. We didn't take photos of her car placement (it was a dramatic time). I think it'll be ok, but I HATE relying on others.

I'm sore...the leg hurts and doesn't like being immobile. It's not too too bad.
