^^^^^ lol

tub has a suction cup mat, suction cups failed. two good things: did not crack my head or the tub. Elbow is swollen and the cut is transverse and right at the bony protuberance. Redid the dressing added more neosporin, hurts like hell but I think its just a bone bruise. I got lucky as hell that I didn't really rack myself up.

I am just a bit fuzzy from taking a pain med so I could sleep last night. Elbow was throbbing then I realized I had bandaged it too tight and did not do the taping in the bent position. Every time I moved the arm the bandage was re-splitting the laceration on the bone. Redid the taping while holding the arm at a 90* angle and hey most of the discomfort is gone...DOH

now for some coffee

Front Range, dude...
Every spring at my house is farging spider fest...big, nasty spiders that make me wish we had a cat. One surprised me in the shower awhile back, I tired to spray it with the shower head and it jumped at me. As it did, I jumped back and of course the shower mat suction cups gave way as I did...were it not for my Ninja like reflexes and my highly tuned snes of proprioception, I would be in the same boat as eric...

The Frau still teases me about the blood curdling scream I let out.

I started to make fun of you for this, but then realized I too am a large scary mammal, but am terrified of needles.
