Well done, self

[jethrien]

Managed to walk backwards at full speed into a marble pillar while leading a group of clients. Bashed my head quite nicely. When one eye was a little more dialated than the other, my coworkers insisted I go to the emergenccy room. (I now owe cookies to the one who took me and sat with me for the entire time.) Three hours later, I'm officially fine.

Not how I planned to spend my day, no.

(Also, emergency room doc was super weird. Asked all the right questions, but in the oddest order and with some very random questions mixed in. And told me a delightful story about a guy who had a head injury, was released, went home and didn't get out of bed for four days, and they had to remove his arms and still haven't figured out why. Seriously, that was pretty much the entire story. Very reassuring, Mr. Doctor Man. He then assured me I'd be fine, and suggested either a Motrin or a beer.)

They probably mixed him up with some other patient who needed gangrenous arms removed. "Er, yes. We 'had' to remove your arms. Why? We're not quite sure."
I'm glad you ended up not being injured. Hopefully you don't have an epidural hematoma like that actress chick who died after hitting her head in a minor ski accident and feeling just fine afterward.

You have it out for Chuck, don't you? ;)

Yeah, 'cause I'm really going to sleep well with that possibility in my head. Never mind that, every time I woke up last night/this morning, I spent several minutes watching Jethrien to make sure she was still breathing and REM-ing normally.

I really need to learn how my father lives on five hours of sleep a night. I don't think I'll survive children without that skill.
