A Certain Point of View, Too

A Quick Update

Hi, all.

Yesterday afternoon I tripped and fell in the parking lot at the nearby Aldi’s supermarket. I got a bit banged up, mostly on my forehead and left hand. It wasn’t – obviously – life-threatening, but it was serious enough that I had to go to the nearest emergency room (Advent Health) to be checked out.

Luckily, there weren’t any broken bones or concussions, but I did suffer a cut on my forehead and abrasions to the five fingers of my left hand. The staff at the ER ran a CAT scan – I have arthritis in my neck now, it seems – and X-rayed my hand just to make sure there weren’t any fractures. Two hours or so later, I was home, a bit tired and looking like I just went 10 rounds with a UFC fighter, but mostly alive.

    Now, Alex. I’m supposed to be emulating you (writing more, writing better, etc.), not the other way around (falling to the ground and getting hurt). I think arthritis has moved into my body as well. This getting old thing… On another note, I’m jealous y’all have Aldi’s. We had it in Chicago, but not here in Tucson, though I believe there is one up in Phoenix. All kidding aside, get better soon, brother. Thinking good thoughts for you!

      “Imitation is the greatest form of flattery.”

      Trust me, Paul, when I say getting out of the car and unexpectedly becoming one with ground was not on my Bingo card yesterday.

      On a serious note, thanks for the good thoughts. I need all the positive energy I can get. 🙂
