short post about accident - status report

i was rearended on 280 tuesday morning. i'm sore all over (arms, legs, back, neck, wrist hands) and my forearms and fingers tingle a little. i just went to the doctor, they gave me a few exercises to do and a prescription for physical therapy. they also took x-rays of my neck in case of any neural damage. he didn't want to give me any muscle relaxants yet, because he knew i was a student with finals approaching.

i haven't really blogged about it because well...typing goes against that whole tingly fingers thing. :P

my parents want to get a lawyer to just handle all the details because there will be a lot and to not incur any unwarranted costs because i did something in the wrong way or something. i'm still not sure what to do.

i've basically been just handling it so far with the AAA adjustor. this morning he said he'd open a medical claim and that another adjustor would be handling that portion and would call me about that. i haven't heard anything yet.

the idea of a lawyer is seeming more and more enticing, as there seems to be more details i need to pay attention to. and besides, i still have finals and my paris class to prepare for.

where does one even find lawyers anyway?
