Ouch!

Not my day.

Had a nice accident with my bike - the bike chain ripped, and of course it did when I was standing up in the saddle, so I totally lost balance and ended up in the ditch (literally). In front of three elderly women I had just passed. Spectacular fall, though. I was reasonably lucky, only scraped and bruised shins, elbows and hands (I had to get my scalpel to cut two stones from under my skin on one hand - don't ask me how they managed to get there) - and a contusion on my thigh where I managed to fall on a stone. Probably the only one in a radius of twenty metres, and I got it. I have a talent like that (previous scars attest to that XD).

And the worst - I just had my bike chain repaired, about five days ago. It had ripped on the exact same part of the way, minus the three elderly women. I feel cursed. I wonder what's going to happen next time I drive past there... And now I have to pay again to get my bike repaired... *sigh*

Not. My. Day.

I guess it was. At least I didn't get badly hurt - imagine that stone had been under my head instead of my thigh (I tried that twice as a kid and I have two nice scars, one on my forehead and one through my eyebrow... XD). So yeah, the bruised ego is the worse. And that I have to wait until my bike is repaired before I can go on my usual daily exercise run...
