And she called me on the phone crying pretty uncontrollably... I guess she thought it was me.

I obviously didn't get too much in the way of the details, because I was doing my best to just calm her down and let her know that I was fine, and everything was alright, etc.. She was crying so badly when I picked up, I thought she was calling to say that something had happened to our parents!

Anyhow... She told me that it was "really bad", but like I said, I didn't pry for details.

I guess Godspeed to the fallen rider. =\ Be safe out there, everybody... This call just scared me sober.
