Sending this from work where I was looking at a coworker while talking and walked full-speed into the edge of a table

My leg hurt and it’s got a hella bruise going now

    Take your pick from a curated selection:

    • As a kid: broke my arm doing a cartwheel (was trying to impress an older, cooler cousin)
    • As a teen: fell in the pool while scooping leaves out of it with one of those long nets, scraping all the skin off one of my thighs on the pool edge as I fell, then proceeded to scrape the skin off the other shin plus tore out a big toenail in my frantic effort to get out of the pool
    • Also as a teen: hit by a car & badly concussed because I did not look before disembarking a tram (this was also the driver’s fault for not stopping tho! but I still should have looked, oops)
    • This year: fell down the stairs of my loft apartment because I forgot steps were a thing I needed to step on, busting open my elbow and getting a rude shock to the spine in the process (am fine now but it was hard to walk for a few weeks, oops)
