What I can only blame on increasing age and clumsiness, I tripped while attempting to enter a city bus this morning on my way to work. My big clown feet caught the bottom of the bus steps, sending me to the bus floor, banging the hell out of my knees, and leaving my khakis dirty.
Seven hours later, my left knee feels fine. But my right knee is really sore, bruised, and swelling. I'm limping around like a peg legged pirate. I'm pathetic.
I'm really a piece of work. Sick, injured, sick, injured. Tomorrow, I'm going to contract West Nile. Friday, I'm scheduled to get my left nipple caught in a car door. Stay tuned.

Oooh, oooh, oooh! (Think Horshack there)
Can I be the one to shut the door on your nipple? Or are you saving that one for TLW?
What, no dragon burns on Saturday?
I want pictures of the nip-pinch.
I broke my ankle getting onto a bus in NYC back in 2001. Public transportation is ruthless.
Arrr, Matey!
I damn near broke both elbows after falling to the ground in San Francisco...on my honeymoon, no less. I tried to heal myself with Ben-Gay and a package of frozen peas.
Wow, when people talk about feeling unsafe on public transportation, I don't think this is what they mean.
And Andrew--you didn't fall. That fucking construction cone jumped out and grabbed your ankles.
