So back in April, the third to be precise, I broke my leg in an accident at work. I was hit by a rolling locomotive that I was trying to keep from rolling into a pit. I probably should have just let it go, but instinct took over and I tried to save it. It was pretty much the scariest thing I have ever been through, I was lucky to merely break my leg, hell I would have been lucky if I had lost my leg. I pretty much could have died, and I don't know that I have yet to let that sink in, but I also didn't set out to write this and bring anyone down so I will move on here as well. I had surgery, and a rod put in to help my tibia heal up, my fibula went back together on its own, or was easily re-set. I am almost all the way healed up now, and after going through physical therapy I have dealt with the limp as well. Now I just have one big thing to deal with, me.
I went for a bike ride today and i am so fucking out of shape that it isn't even funny. I knew I put on some weight while I was laid up, and I really can't blame myself. I was unable to do anythign for 2.5, and was eating comfort food, so yeah I put on some weight. I was out on the bike for about a half hour or so and I probably could have gone longer but I tried to ride like I used to right away, and that kind of sapped the strength. I guess I am just going to have to keep getting out there and do stuff so that I can be a little more active, but damn it's hard to get yourself to do shit when you are out of shape, I guess that is why our nation is obese like it is. Well I bettter do my part of ridding this nation of some fat, and lose some of my own. So all of you out there, root for me, I need it.
