This has been my clumsiest week in quite some time. I have always been clumsy, which is strange considering I was fairly successful in gymnastics and other sports growing up. Perhaps my clumsiness comes from being a bit reckless, which made me a fearless gymnast/sprinter/hurdler, and which makes me unafraid to get back on my bicycle nowadays after having taken a thrilling spill or two.
At any rate, here is a rundown of exactly what I've been doing to myself this week:
Monday AM: At work, ran left shin into step ladder. Bruising in that area coming along nicely.
Monday PM: Random bruising appears on left knee in strange crop-circle-like pattern. Not sure where or when injury took place, but apparently must not have hurt much.
Tuesday AM: Smashed elbow into confidential recycling barrel at work, causing debilitating funny bone tingle.
Tuesday PM: Upon arrival at home via bicycle, could not unclip pedal from left shoe at top of driveway, fell to the ground in cartoonlike manner. Bruised up right thigh and knee, jammed wrist on pavement.
Wednesday: Lovely bike ride with Chad through Discovery Park comes to a crashing halt as I make an abrupt turn, our bikes collide and we fall to the ground in a cartoonlike manner. Many many bruises on left hip and lower leg. Chad gets scratched up palms and a big bruise on his leg.
So today is Thursday. I'm hoping I've filled my quota of clumsiness for the week, and can look forward to an incident free weekend.

I have a bruise book...I know, weird. Got any cool pictures?
I was thinking about it! I'll try to get some good ones before they all go away.
