Not a terrific start to the day

I managed to go all winter without wiping out on the ice or snow. I was careful with how I walked, went slow on the days that were really bad, and managed to stay upright the entire time. Today, however, my record was broken.

In my body's defense, I was really tired when I got out of bed. Yesterday was a very long day of bus rides to Chicago, back from Chicago, and walking around a GIGANTIC trade show. Still, it was surprising when my foot slipped on the top stair and I skidded my way down half the staircase.

I got out of it with a skinned elbow and a bruised backside. My back is stiff now, but I don't know how much of that is leftover from yesterday and how much is from today. Peanut seems to still be doing fine. I've been feeling somersaults the last couple days, and nothing bad seems to have happened. It was more startling than anything else, which I suppose is good.

Bleah. Now to deal with the pile of email that came in yesterday. Joy.
