WHY DID YOU CLICK HERE? WHY DO YOU SUBJECT YOURSELF TO THIS KIND OF PUNNISHMENT?

 

I was riding my new scooter to my brothers house to show it off. I was so proud. 

 

Going max speed, I saw a BAD crack in the sidewalk. Nay, a chasm. Perhaps a canyon of the grand variety. I tried to brake and avoid it... but no. 

 

I yard saled right into the horizontal plane. My body was hurt, but my pride was hurt slightly more. 

 

I decided to head back with a little less zoom this time. I never even made it to my brothers house. I returned home with a bloodied knee and a hard lesson learned. 

​

I simply walked in with a straight face and didn't say a word. My husband greeted me, and when he saw my knee the confusion set in, followed by a mini heart attack.

 

"What happened?" he asked... the obvious question of course.  

​

I've never had a broken bone or major surgery - only stitches on my head from falling back on an old air conditioner when I was in elementary school. So, I suppose I'm not doing too bad. However, does it feel strange to get hurt this bad at this age doing something so dumb? Yes. Yes it does. ​
