It's not a bomb, it's just my hip replacement…











{September 17, 2010}   I have the grace of a rhinoceros

(and the nose of one, too!)

I fell. Down the stairs. It was just 3, though!

I’m fine. But I find it super funny that I fell and I actually said “no no no no no” out loud because I was afraid I’d popped my hip out of its socket.

There I was … walking down the stairs. Had some long pants on, and the combination of the fabric under my heel and my wicked awesome foot placement too close to the end of the step ended with me on my ass. It wasn’t one of those crap I’m gonna fall things. It was more of a *bam* what the hell just happened to me? things.

Today I have some bruising and feel like I ran full speed into a brick wall. Otherwise I’m alright. My ortho said not to worry. If I can still walk that means I didn’t cause any permanent damage.

In other news – I managed to go 4 months without falling! Woohoo!
