in which I roll a one, but only take half damage

[saffronhare]

Yesterday, I looked at the box of glass that got picked up after the coffeetable lost a battle against my swiftly descending ass and realized how lucky I was, not to have been injured any worse -- either with the fall itself or with the scramble to get up off the mess.

Stitches feeling some better today. There's enough marginal function in my right hand that I'm able to get some work done here at the office. I'm even managing to sit in a balanced manner on both cheeks. And I get to switch to a less restrictive bandage in another day or so. Yay! (Today, I am Queen of the Silver Lining.)

For the record: diermuid took me to the ER, but princessboredom had to put a bandage on her mother's butt. She managed not to literally fall over laughing. That's some heroism right there. :)

OW! I'm glad you're okay and coping well. =D

Thanks. Everyone is really chipping in at the house so I don't have to do quite so much with my right hand, and have an easier time keeping the dressings dry. Yay!
