In which there is pain and suffering

[hominysnark]

Following the long-held Clardy tradition of falling on one's ass, I managed to fall Saturday morning. But, wanting to put my own spin on it, apparently, I did not fall on my ass.

I fell on my face.

Every morning, I get up pre-dawn crack and walk 3 miles on the Pinellas Trail a stretch of which is conveniently about a block from the house.

Oh, man, poor hurty you! I'm glad it wasn't even worse, but I bet you'll end up with one heck of a black eye. Could fit in quite nicely with your story, though.

[hominysnark]

The black eye is perking right along as we speak! Well, type. Whatever.

[asatomuraki]

Yikes! Glad you're on the mend.

[hominysnark]

Yeah, I'm glad it's easily mendable.

That was quite a spill! But you told us all about it, so that's cool. As far as anyone knows, I've never taken a misstep or faceplanted in the middle of an intersection.

And my hats off to you for the outside exercise. I've been inside for like the last 72 hours.

[hominysnark]

No, no, it was a pirate! Swear to god!

[pjthompson]

Dueling scars as so dashing. Srsly, that is one owie owie. Heal up quick now!

[hominysnark]

Rakish, even. :D

[pjthompson]

You got hit by a rake????

[barbarienne]

Oi! That looks extremely ouchy.

If we are ever at a convention together and you have a scar and someone asks about it, I will totally, totally back up your pirates-and-sabre story with all the embellishment at my command.
