Myself and Miniest were just in an incident where the bus driver had to slam on the brakes really hard to avoid a collision. I ended up on the floor in a weird position with Miniest on top of me, with a container of cookies she made in Home Ec stopping her head from hitting the floor. Cookies ftw โ๐ผ๐ช๐ค๐ผI heard a weird gristly sound (either my neck or cookies) She saw people hit their head. Nobody bleeding or seriously injured (that I know of) but I landed on my own arm and it's a bit sore. It'll be bruised tomorrow I reckon. I was carrying some Cinnabon cake and a frittata and both were undamaged! ๐ฎ๐This is the second time this has happened to me on a bus, so just sayin be careful out there!
Oh jeez, Iโm glad it was nothing serious
