Stuff that happened over the last two weeks

[nyankoframe]

• I met cheyannew and was thoroughly impressed by her singing voice as well as the collection of weapons she has at home ^^;; I feel bad for anyone who tries to break in


• I drove about 20 miles on a freeway highway (I-90 eastbound/westbound) as part of my driving lessons and also went past the exit to the place where a certain blob lives, going beyond (IIRC) the North Bend exit to the part where bicycles are allowed on the highway. After doing about 60-70 mph on the freeway highway, going back to doing 25 on a normal road seems slow in comparison. ^^;;


• Speaking of driving, I may be taking my practical test as early as this month~ I just need to find the time and make a booking while contending with all the teenagers and practice, especially parallel parking and reversing


• I cycled about 30 miles on Wednesday on the Sammamish River and Burke-Gilman trails, going as far north as Kenmore before we turned around (since it was getting late). It was relatively easy going, although I was initially worried that I might run into a horse or two, but they didn't seem to be around ^^;; I need to do more training for STP though...


• ... except that this morning I hit a garage wall on my bicycle at 20 mph while it was raining, even though I'd hit the brakes. <.< I got off relatively lightly with a concussion, a swollen/bruised cheek and some pain in my jaw, as well as aching shoulders and bruises on my fingers. After sleeping for a few hours, the concussion seems to have gone down, though I'll definitely see a doctor if it's still there tomorrow, and most of the bruises are gradually healing. I still find it funny though that I managed to cycle to work after that, park my bicycle, take the elevator to my office and do about 2 minutes of work before I realized something was wrong. ^^;;;

And since I have a paid account, what better way than to be silly with a poll?

GO AND SEE A DOCTOR!!!!!! SERIOUSLY!
Any blunt trauma/injury to the head, HOWEVER slight, should NEVER be taken lightly. Do go and get the injury checked, just to ensure that everything's all right. Hey man... please promise me this K???
Do tell me how the check-up goes and stuff. Until you see the doctor DON'T cycle or do anything that relies heavily on motor skills.
Sorry, but you made me really worried this morning when I was on my way to teach man... O_o heard from Cow over the phone @_@

I hope you have seen a doctor by now or plan to on Monday. You should've called an ambulance to take you to the ER. It's covered by the med plan anyway. >o Once you are ok, then continue cycling/driving.

Actually, I just came back from seeing a doctor at the ER. ^^;; And that was covered too~

I'm going to hold off driving/cycling until after I hear at the follow-up consultation with the doctor I was referred to.
