Yikes, Teppy. Take care of yourself.

(In our group text, my college roommates assured me that I never had any dignity to begin with. This is the danger of being friends with people for 35 years.)
Ha, ha, ha. Yes. Yes, it is.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Yikes, Steph! I hate when that happens! I've also had two falls in the last couple of months. Definitely no fun. My right knee seems to be where I concentrate my landings and it's still a little sore even though I'm recovered from the rest of the bumps and bruises. Hope ice & ibuprofen have you feeling better ASAP.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Like, I’m so tired and/or bored I can’t even bring myself to make a list, let alone do any of the things. Or anyway that’s my new entirely made up etymology.
Head cannon accepted.
Glad to see you, Epic!
Tep, are your electrolytes good? Because I was that falling person. I'm still unsteady sometimes but it's useful to know. I understand the embarrassment but we're on your side here. Feel better!

Tep, are your electrolytes good?
...that's a good question. When I came home from Colorado in September with the flu, I got really dehydrated but bought electrolyte replacement to add to water (Drip Drop Hydration was the winner). I assumed my electrolytes have been okay since then, but maybe not.

Sounds like it's time to wrap someone in bubble wrap.

For SURE, when I am dehydrated, there is more danger of falling... and all kinds of other crap. Look into that!

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie
Oh no, Tep! Protect those spicy brains! And yes on checking your electrolytes, please. Sounds like something is going on, and that is NOT YOUR FAULT. I know the shame brain lies.
My dignity has been fatally wounded, though. (In our group text, my college roommates assured me that I never had any dignity to begin with. This is the danger of being friends with people for 35 years.)
Ha! So true!

I know people who worked on ballot curing in Cali. Tep, OMG, hope you're not hurt.
