On my way back home today (not from work, but elsewhere), I was trying to cycle onto the sidewalk from the road and ended up in a flower bed instead. It probably helped that it was raining and I was travelling somewhat fast. ^^;;;

I actually got off pretty lightly considering I wasn't wearing my helmet, with a hole in my jeans, a bruised/scraped knee and some slight pain (and mud) in my hands (I fell on my hands to cushion my fall). But after that, I decided I was going to take the bus back instead of trying to cycle home in the rain. :P

I'll probably lay off playing the piano tonight, since I'm still hurting a bit and especially since my laptop isn't back yet for which I blame Acer and FedEx, one for omitting the apartment number and the other for sending it out again without correcting the address.

Random note: doing 28 mph in a bicycle downhill is fun~ Until you come to the uphill part. Also, 4 miles in 23 minutes (including traffic lights).

Be careful while cycling! Rain = slippery road...

*gives Acer and FedEx a good poke for being silly*

And thank you for ____ ! ^_^

Reminds me of the time I tried to pull an evasive maneuver between two cars on a very rainy day. All I remember is that I went from turning at 30 degrees to 90 degrees on my butt, with two cars at the stop signs looking at me strangely...

Be careful! At least it was a flower bed instead of pavement. Or worse, a car! (Helmets are good things, even if they're kinda dorky looking.) :D

Hope your knee will be okay. My right knee is scarred for life since when I opened it as a teenager and never got it stitched. It's still open from the inside and years ago a doctor told me that if I get the wound open again I have to get it stitched asap, but so far it hasn't happened. It looks like I have a thin layer of skin over it that feels very fragile. It's horrid.

Don't force your knee too much and do get it checked if it gets paralyzed or if you keep having problems bending and stretching. My best friend's husband required surgery after injuring his knee playing basketball.
