In my last blog entry, I was hoping for some sort of stress explosion that might allow me to get past my bottleneck of stressness. Well, it happened - I laid down my scooter with me underneath it. I was zipping up a road I travel on all the time. Just as it began to curve, I was watching for this patch of water - I needed to make sure to not turn too much while in it or I'd lose traction and lay down my bike. But as I looked to see what was around the bend, I saw that I was heading toward two women who hadn't seen me coming and thusly, weren't getting out of my way. I slammed on my brakes right in the middle of the patch of water and laid down my bike.
I got out of it okay, really. Just some scrapes, really. My right knee and elbow just got skinned. My left forearm got a a four-inch-long scrape that didn't bleed so much as it just looked painful (and it was). And finally, my left knee suffered the most, getting a good and blood scrape that has made walking slightly difficult, but not impossible and climbing stairs downright time consuming.
But I'm feeling better fast. I just hope I'm good for this weekend and my little brother's wedding... I think I'm still going, but I don't know if I'll be doing anything in it since no one has told me more than some vague mention of a signing ceremony. I assume I'll get a cheat sheet when I get there. Oh well... it's not MY wedding, so I guess I just have to trust that someone else will tell me what to do. I've called and left messages, but what more can I do??
More on this wedding fun in the days/weeks to come...
