It's been awhile since I fell on my face biking. Detoured through an old Kia dealership yesterday on the way home to avoid pedestrians + cars, they do love to put chains on their entrances and exits at random, there was none on the entrance, one on the exit, which I realized within the last 5 feet

Shit dude, glad it wasn't worse.

I think the helmet thing is because if you eff your brain, it's pretty much game over, not so much with a limb.

[dookee]

Not-so-modern science has proven you can remove quite a bit of the brain and still be a .. 'functional' human being. I balk at this explanation. Hehe.

[catawumpus6]

Seriously? Which parts of the brain? And what is their definition of functional?

I'm glad you're not too roughed up.

[dookee]

Prefrontal Cortex, and I think the definition at the time was 'Still Alive'. Though, to be fair, some of them didn't even retain that status for very long.

Happened to JFK's sister, because she had PMS and liked boys. God Bless America! *Marches around the intertubes patriotically*

I own a bunch of cold/hot packs if you would like me to bring you one. Portable and easy to use :)

I tried icing it, doesn't seem to do much since it isn't really swollen.

You're welcome to come over anyway though, I'll make you a copy of La Radiolina. I'm not working for the next couple of days because of my wrist, so if there's sometime that you deem convenient for sacrifice, let me know.

Your reflexes only work if you're conscious, whereas in the scenario where you are hit head-on by a car and thrown over said car in a double impact, it would be your head connecting with the pavement first, not said arm.

I had an extremely vivid traumatic vision earlier today in which I imagined that said scenario had indeed taken place, and you had left us with your shriveled drooling carcass to care for, said 'Still Alive' carcass having been speedily stripped of all wit and brilliance by your uncanny and nerve-wracking lack of ability to consider others in your fly-by-night lifestyle.

But then, it is that stage in pregnancy where one is prone to hormonally wrought traumatic fantasies of all flavors.

PS: That song 'No Diggity' rocks, as I recall, though I haven't heard it in many years. I should download it again.

I have been hit head-on by a car, I didn't get thrown over it per se, but I did slide onto the roof. Didn't knock me unconscious, I guess I need to try harder.

They're supposed to be offering free will preparation as a benefit at work, I'm not sure if it takes effect before I get laid off though. I'll be sure to throw a DNR and vegetable clause and whatnot in there to take care of that whole burden on others thing.

I'm glad to hear your pregnancy is giving you horrible visions of the future, in the sense that it's part of the normal progression of things. Hehe.

Happy early birthday by the way, to you and Xavier, since I never can remember on the day of, so I guess it's better to be premature than an ass saying it late. That and I can't remember Xavier's exact birthday, somewhere around the 14-16th as I recall, I'm such a terrible uncle.
