Thursday I slipped on a wet stair and fell. Landed on my side on the stairs. Thought I just knocked the wind out of myself. After a trip to the doctor and an x-ray it turns out I broke a couple of ribs. They are hairline fractures so there really isn't anything they can do for me other than give me pain killers and wrap it up, which actually doesn't seem to help that much.
It took me most of the day today to find comfortable ways of sitting. So I now can at least sit and watch TV or read a book on the couch or sit at the desk to work for a while without being in agony.
On the good side I did this while carrying the girlfriend's groceries into her house so she feels guilty and has been offer up anything she can to make me feel better
