i almost made it to work. i was no more than thirty metres away when it happened. i should have known better than to try to divide my concentration like that. talking and walking. nope, not going to try that again.
i landed square on my ass, which is the good part. it’s nicely padded for just such occasions. better cushion and all that, you know. the bad part is i severely aggrevated my pre-existing back pain and now i can barely sit, stand or walk. and, for some unknown reason, my calf muscle started cramping up on the walk in.
anyway, marie was good enough to give me a couple muscle relaxants and i think i’m going to go home after i finish payroll and report my little spill to first aid. i wish it wasn’t so fucking slick out. i’d like to try to get to either the pharmacy or the doctor; but i can barely walk and it’s too gross to drive so i’ll be stuck drugless and in pain.
all this on top of a five a.m. wake up… i need a hug. ouch. *whimper*
*hug* I’m sorry. I feel so bad for you. I’ve landed flat on my ass (which is also nicely padded) and it doesn’t make an ounce of difference when it comes to the pain factor.
The last time I did it I sat there for 2 minutes in complete shock and disbelief, and then I didn’t know whether to cry or laugh, it hurt so damn bad!
Hope those muscle relaxers help, but I’d be going for a painkiller if you can find one!
i’m sorry. i know that doesn’t help. i’ve done that rollerskating. there are a few pharmacies here that deliver, so maybe? if you can’t find anything better, ibuprofin and red wine helps me… *hug*
ouch that sounds painful! *hugs* hope you’re feeling better.
