i was thinking of posting pictures.. i even took them. But honestly they are far too gruesome to share. I've lost nearly all the skin in my palm on my left hand. Like that part where your thumb meets your hand.. yeah. A lot of skin on my left knee as well. My right side fared far better but even that was far from perfect. Basically I was biking along the side of the road with dima.. decided the sidewalk would be safer and thought my bike could make the curb. Unfortunately it could not and instead sent me skidding along the pavement. I thought it was better my hands than my face.... so it goes. Right now i'm sitting up trying to acertain how i am going to go to sleep without inevitably waking up cursing like a sailor because i have accidently put presure on the wrong hand. Let this be a lesson to you all. Don't be me.
