So... Just about 48 hours ago, I broke my leg.

(I never have believed in what the journo guys call "burying the lead" :)

I was coming back from having started a load of laundry. There's two ways to walk back from the laundry room to the apartment -- follow the safe concrete walkways, or take the slippery, grassy slope.

Guess which one I did. :)

I'm just back from the hospital. I now have a metal rod in my leg to reinforce the tibula and fibula, so they'll grow back well.

But now comes the fun part. Probably two weeks minimum of lying around the house with my leg propped up, and about six weeks before everything's back to normal. It's hard to say whether I'll write more or less -- it'll probably depend on my mood.

But that's the news from Lake Wobegon, in case you were wondering why I was suddenly quiet.
