Water Skiing Accident

Crutches are hard to use.

I started this week feeling tired of work, grumpy at always having to be there and having no chance to be sick as I have no back up. No one else knows how to do my job. I have to be there every Wednesday - come rain or shine.
Or at least thats the way it feels, I've got no escape. So after all this building frustration I gave in and booked a time with my Team Leader to discuss these feelings on Friday morning.
But fate stepped in on Tuesday evening.

I spent the evening cooking dinner, emptying the dishwasher - all that usual stuff. Except I left the dishwasher door open.
And some water got spilt in the kitchen and wasnt cleaned up in time.
So as I headed in there to finish the dishes, I slipped in the water and my right leg went crunching into the dishwasher door.
Vladdy got home and witnessed me crying in pain and bundled me off to the doctor.

Nothings broken, just a really bad soft tissue injury. But it's the worst pain I've experienced in a long, long time. I can barely walk.
So I couldnt go in to work today.
And it's a Wednesday.

Funny how fate works that way?
