Winter is Fun!

[katallison]

So, the very best part of winter isn't the shoveling tons of snow ... or the going out in -30 windchill ... or the fact that it NEVER ENDS ...

No, the bestest part of all is falling on the GODDAMNED ice and breaking one's GODDAMNED wrist.

(Right wrist, of COURSE, being as how I'm right-handed.)

May I just say FUCK. Also, dear GOD the ER is a tedious place to spend three hours.

Upside? Scrip for Vicodin, dudes! You suppose I could trade half of it to Greg House in exchange for some dirty, dirty, carnal roistering? (*g*)

Ow. Pilling up and heading to bed now, and apologies in advace if I don't get replies to any comments out (and don't feel obligedto comment!) -- typing is a bit cumbersome.

DAMN YOU WINTER.

(Oh and C.--do NOT feel bad, this could've happened anywhere. *hugs*)

ETA: Ah hahahahahahaha!! I forgot to specify non-childproof cap on the g.d. Vicodin! Just TRY opening a childproof cap w/a broken wrist!

Sorry I didn't get back to you before -- I was sort of looped on Vicodin yesterday. But as I said to Jackie, do not fret for even a moment; the ice was all over the place Tuesday, and I just needed to be more attentive to where I was stepping. I didn't really plan to go to the ER until I was about halfway home and it started throbbing and hurting, and I really didn't expect to be sitting there that long (it wasn't *crowded* or anythimg, it's just like time went into some alternate-dimension non-moving loop. Plus, TV blatting Suze Orman and the public TV membership drive oh god kill me NOW.)

I now have a sleek little black cast and can type much more easily than with the splint, which is a relief.

And ack, I don't know if I'll see you again before you head off to England -- if not, have a fabulous time! Take pictures and notes to bring back!
