At Aethelmearc War Practice, I ended up with some bruised ribs.
In the last of 6+ field melees that were 100+ people per side, I took a freak shot.
While nailing an oponent in the helm with my greatsword, I got cross-shotted at an angle with a spear. This shot came under the armpit and arm at just the angle to bypass my armor and try to lecote my right pectoral. I can't swear to this, but I think the tip might have been in failure, as it felt like I got hit with a cap. It knocked the air out of me and ended my fighting for the day.
Unfortunately, you use the muscles in that area a lot and healing has been slow as I seem to keep straining the ribs.
So, I am trying to heal, get some garb and gear done..and relax. Work has been stressful with sudden increases and decreases in clients. Personal life has been a bit strained because of the nature of Furries locally and abroad. I like many _individual_ furs. But, as a group, they make some apalling choices and get defended with the all-encompassing excuse of "Thats what Furries do" (no matter what the indiscretion). Its like a reverse Hive-Mind...the more you get together, the lower the standards.
All in all, I'm moving forward down other paths.
