The indignity... (self.disability)

So it's finally happened.

I went to the sauna after my swim at the municipal swimming pool, and as always I was super careful because I don't have great balance and the floor is always slippery in there.

And... I slipped. I splattered myself all over the floor in front of 15 sweaty dudes in Adam's costume and hit my knee bad enough that I couldn't get up.

3 or 4 of them dudes got up to help and scraped me off the floor. No real harm done, but my ego is still bruised 6 hours later. I just wanted to vent a bit. Sorry...

Shit happens. Don't worry about it. If anything, you can turn it into a funny story. At least, that's what I'd do, but I like laughing at my own mishaps.
