So I was riding home from breakfast this morning, all giddy with glee because I had in my bag brand-new albums by the Silver Jews, Wolf Parade, and Tilly & the Wall, when what should happen as I rode past some parked cars? Why, I got doored, of course.
"OW! JESUS!" [sound of me almost falling of my bike as it ricocheted into the back of the car in front of me]
Actually, I'm all right, and the guy who doored me was very apologetic and insisted that he'd checked in his mirror before opening his door and hadn't seen me, in which case whatever, accidents happen I guess. Fortunately I was going pretty slowly due to trying to navigate through a knot of traffic backed up at some lights so I wasn't hurt too badly. However, now my left ankle hurts rather a lot (it took the brunt of the impact with the car door), which when put together with recent injuries to my right wrist (tendinitis) and my left wrist (got accidentally knocked over when playing touch football; tried to brace my fall with my hand; failed to execute said brace adequately) makes me fear that in a month I'll be hopping everywhere on my right food and performing all feats of manual dexterity with my mouth.
We'll see, we'll see.
