The home is where most accidents happen...

Managed to slip and fall when going to answer the phone. Landed on hip, and bashed head very hard against the architrave. Hard enough that Styvyn and I both thought that maybe getting a doctor to check it out was a good thing though we thought it would be ok. Waited over three hours in Emergency at Westmead - not that I'm complaining about the wait, I would have been pretty low on the triage list. I did think that, as nothing drastic had happened in that time, it was even more likely to be ok, but then they called me in.

Doctor was nice, also said it seems ok and we left again. Strangely, the thing that's bothering me most at the moment is my hand. I think it got severely jarred and bruised when it got landed on - it's stiffening up nicely. Problem is, I'm not sure I'll be able to drive tomorrow.

Grump, grump, grumpety grump!
