Well, today hurt. Very literally. I worked from home in the morning, and I was on a call for work when Babe started to try to go up some shelves she shouldn't. I tried to gesture her off, that didn't work, I moved to get off the stool...and blew it, and fell off the stool, onto the hardwood floor, trying to catch myself on the counter. I failed, but I may have eased the fall doing that; not sure. Nasty bruise on my knee; banged one fingertip good but it's not hurting now (just stung like a bear at the time), a couple more areas that feel like they may have bruises, and strained my lower back. The last worries me the most but it is not bad and the advice nurse agreed - ibuprofen and see how it does. Common wisdom often evolving from truth, I suspect I will be less comfy tomorrow, but as long as the only major injury is to my ego, I'll be happy.
I didn't take any photos today, and I think I'm going to let it slide this once, at this point. Scott and I did play WoW tonight, which was fun. We played little draenei characters. We'll go back to our mains soon, I think, but I wasn't wanting to play seriously, and a lot of what our main alts need have some time commitments involved, so...it worked. We had fun. I'm playing a shaman (go figure), but he is playing a hunter. Since everyone's playing a shaman. (Which is true, but I love shamans, so....)
I actually went in to the office for the afternoon today! The roads were, except for the one we live on, basically totally cleared in the driving lanes. (Ours was slushy.) Drive home was equally safe. If slightly dumb: I got off at the north Wilsonville exit and came right home. In spite of a bazillion attempts to remember, throughout the day, to go to the library and pick up the books on hold. Oh well. Tomorrow. If I want to read Terrier on Saturday evening, I had better stop there soon! :P Tomorrow they close early, so if I miss, I may have to swing by on Saturday. We'll see. I'm not sure what I'll be doing tomorrow yet - if work can spare me, I'd like to take a half-day off and run the errands that I couldn't run on Tuesday. If not, they'll have to wait until next week, most likely.
Meanwhile, the funny. From "The Daily WTF", a job requirement that needs a time machine.
That might be a little difficult.

That's exactly the kind of thing I do to myself all of the time. Baby that back.
