Well, I was not on the bike, only an innocent pedestrian walking on campus when...
Out of nowhere a collision with a butt-mutt (keeping it PG here) on a bike hits me head on trying to swerve through pedestrians on an icy sidewalk.
Two broken fingers, dislocated knee cap, three broken bones in my foot, and exploratory surgery yesterday for possible internal bleeding...Please people, do not ride your bikes on the sidewalks.
Oh yeah, he wasn't wearing a helmet, and was lucky to get away with only a minor concussion. So, normally I would say "Wear your helmets..." but this guy should be a candidate for Darwin's survival of the dumbest."
So, no workouts for at least six weeks, and not a whole lot of typing (I've returned to my 'hunt and peck' days.
