Ancient Chinese secret

My fortune cookie on Tuesday said, "In a few days, you will come out ahead."

I don't think this is what I had in mind when I read that.

I was very lucky. No one was hurt (my wrist is sore but nothing broken and no blood), no other cars were involved, and the kindly Oregon State Trooper did not cite me. Plenty of people stopped to help me, my sister and brother-in-law were only 15 minutes away and came to my rescue, and even American Express is going to cover the accident (at least it appears so at this point, cross your fingers).

Note to self: always use American Express for car rentals. Y'know... just in case.

I'll post more details later but I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm safe and I did end up having a happy Thanksgiving after all.

All in all... I think, in retrospect, that I did come out ahead, after all.

Whoa! I'm glad you're okay! And your youngest nephew? He's good too?

Wow.

And I thought those plain Chinese cookies were merely a tasty treat!

Yes, Max is fine. He wasn't with me - he'd gotten in trouble and did not get to spend the night with me nor run in the Turkey Trot. I was the only person involved.
