from another journal that i keep:
______________________________________________
well. things keep getting more interesting. i decided that i needed a day off work. just a little something for myself. you know...wash the mountain of dishes - do the laundry - buy food to fill my empty kitchen - all of the things that you don't seem to get around to when you're working as much as i have been. fun stuff like that.
my day off was cut short right after laundry, though. cut short by a car that decided to make a surprise u-turn right in front of me and my motorcycle. i had less than 10 feet to react...and anyone who rides a motorcycle can tell you that that's not nearly enough.
she said that she had no idea that i was there. she turned the wheel, felt the sudden impact, and then "saw something black fly over the hood of the car." that something black was me.
i'd like to go into more detail and all, but i just recently got home from spending 7 hours at a very shitty emergency room. (a word to all east bay kids - if you need immediate attention, avoid Highland Medical Center at all costs.) in the end, i've got a really blood-black right pinkie finger, a fracture in the first joint of said finger, an incredibly swollen right big toe, and another, much worse fracture there - also in the joint.
so...i wanted some time off from work, and i sure as hell got some. at least two weeks of it.
______________________________________________
that was two days ago. i'm stuck at home and stir-craziness is starting to set in. soooo...if you've ever wanted to IM me, now's yer chance. i'll be stuck at home all night tonight.
