Ka-Chow!
So I switched to my cool "Do not fall down stairs" avatar a few weeks back, since my and TejasFJR were both using the same Batman logo. (You're a thief Tejas!)
It seems I should have followed my own advice, since Wednesday a week ago I (can you feel it coming??) fell down the stairs. About 3 steps from the bottom I misplanted my foot, and tumbled to the bottom, landing in a heap. One ambulance ride, 12 hours in the ER and one 4-hour surgery later, I'm sitting here with a plate holding my fibula together, and 6-7 screws holding my shattered tibia together.
Not even sure what happened - new house, we had only been in there 4 days, and bare oak stairs with no carpeting - guess I just slipped somehow. I'm spending my days at my mom's house with my little one, since mom said is dumb for me to be alone @ home and helpless. Nothing like being baby-sat when you're 34.
No riding for me until early May at least, maybe longer, depending on how well it heals.
